Anyone know how to stop deleted files from reappearing? After an update they will just be there, even after I’ve emptied the recycle bin. The ones that show back up the most are my sims 4 deleted mods and cc. I decided to completely start my mod file over and cleared it out, but the old files keep showing back up. Any help would be appreciated. I have laptop 17-cn1009cy if that’s relevant.

That sounds like a compromised (virus/malware/adware) laptop operating system.
Run the ESET online scanner to see if there are some bad actors present.
