PaetorRob12 MattyzHK Try reinstalling your 2015 and newer VC++ runtimes. Open Windows Settings > Apps, scroll down to the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributables, and uninstall everything from 2015 and newer. Don't touch the older versions.
Download the x86 and x64 versions (not the ARM version) of the 2022 runtimes from Microsoft:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-US/cpp/windows/latest-supported-vc-redist?view=msvc-170
Install the runtimes, restart your computer, and try to play.
If that doesn't help, please provide the information requested in the accepted solution of the master Sims 1 won't launch thread:
