@youknowquaterbac  Please do a clean uninstall of Sims 4:

• Download Revo Uninstaller (the free version is fine) from here.
• Launch Revo, select Sims 4 from the list, and click Uninstall.
• Once the game is uninstalled, select "Moderate" under "scanning modes," and click Scan.
• Review the list, in case there's something you want to save; otherwise, click Select All, and then Delete.
• Close Revo, and restart your computer.

Next, uninstall the 2015, 2017, or 2019 VC++ runtimes, whichever versions you have, both x64 and x86.  Download new copies from Microsoft here:

You do need both x86 and x64, but you can skip the ARM version.  Restart again afterwards.

Redownload Sims 4 and try to play.  Don't add, remove, or replace any files, just try to run the game as is.  If you get the same error, please run a dxdiag and attach it to a post.

Please also let me know what antivirus program you use.
