Sims 4 Wont Launch from EA App

For the last two days or so I have been unable to open the game from the EA app.  It tries to launch but gives the error codes: VCRUNTIME140..dll and MSVCP140..dll.  Then says I need to repair my game and files are corrupted.  I can't even get a loading screen to pop up.

I've repaired the game several different times in the EA app, restarted the computer several different times after trying different methods, cleared the EA app cache, deleted all mods and CC (I thought they were all completely deleted already but found out OneDrive kept them in, ugh - I don't want mods/cc in my game anymore), uninstalled OneDrive, uninstalled and re-installed both the game and EA app.

I also tried to remove the Sims 4 folder from documents but a new folder did not generate when trying to open the game.

Nothing has worked so far and I've never had this issue before. 

I'm at a total loss on what to do next. Wondering if I need a new computer now.. and probably lost all event rewards, etc...
