[PC] Houses replaced with red X/Win Smart App control feature blocking game

Oh Wow!!!   I'm still playing on my WIN10 system.  Will be moving to WIN11 on my new rig in about a week.  Thanks for this.  Will make sure to turn off the smart add blocker.  Thanks again.

When loading the sims 4 it loads perfectly but after creating the sims and to enter the world of choice the houses and buildings are replaced with giant red x within a clear box and sometimes the worlds doesnt open instead i see a white blank screen.

Not only that but if i try to start i start with no money and i am stuck. I deleted my save data bnecause I thought they were corruptyed and reinstalled the game several times but the issue remains the same.

Also you start out with $0.00 money so either way youre stuck.

I have the same issue after the update.

If you turn it off you cant turn it back on unles you reinstall windows.

mine is also in japnese letters with a question mark. Did you just delete the text and rewrite it as it shows on the game screen before saving? 

This doesn’t work at all. Also I noticed when I log into the game and then I start playing it’s like my sims freeze and then I can’t select other buttons and I can’t even exit out the game without forced exit. Which is the end task 

Hi thank you so so so much your solution worked for me!!😊💗
