Hi @marcipanfelho5 - if you know your Windows 10 is 64 bit, then you do not need the Legacy edition at all. (that message can be a bit confusing, it's just saying that if you DID have a 32 bit system, you would need the legacy edition)
To get back to the most up-to-date version of The Sims 4: In Origin, right-click the game's icon, choose "Game Properties", click on the "Advanced Game Options" tab and make sure the part that says "When launching this game" says "The Sims 4 64 bit". See the picture in this post
That should let you restart your game as it was before you downloaded the Legacy edition.

@BlackjackWidow It took ages to reinstall everything but my game finally works again! 🙂
If anybody has this problem, try to run Origin and The Sims 4 as an administrator and try to reinstall the full game. I don't know what was the problem but I fixed it somehow and I hope that now stays this way. :D Thanks again!
