Sims 4 won't start because of 'missing or damaged files'

Hi,
Everything was working fine for the sims 4, until I started running out of space for the game. So I deleted my sims 3 and all the expansion packs I had for it 🏀. During this process a de-authorization window pops up and asks if I want to de-autherize them. So I click yes and they all get deleted. The my computer does a disk clean-up of my computer and now I have a bit more space. After putting all my cc in the correct folders I go to play and a message comes up that says "sims 4 can't start because of missing or damaged files."

I've tried deleting my cc but that dosen't solve the problem because if I put one back in, it goes back to being the same. I've also seen many people say it's because of a resent update, but I was completly updated. I tried repairing the game in Origen and it's the same thing.

Please help!
