I'm missing the EAlauncher.exe file
I don't know if this is the right place however I can't start a new thread on EA questions HQ because it's asking me to select something and then not showing me the options but effectively since an update in February 2024 I have been unable to use EA app. I have tried a million times over and every suggestion however I keep getting the pop up that I'm missing this file and yet I cannot find it anywhere I am also the only admin and user of the laptop. Does anyone know how can I fix this?A question about the account at EA Games
Hello, I have a question regarding the Sims 4 that my daughter plays on your site. The whole game was installed on the wrong hard drive and now the hard drive has become full when the Sims 4 wants to update itself, there is no space on the hard drive. So how is it easiest to do? Uninstall everything and reinstall it on the hard drive it was supposed to be installed on originally, or can it somehow be moved over some other way? We have bought a lot of different expansion packs on the Sims 4, so my question is if you uninstall it, are they still in the account or do they disappear? I want it confirmed before doing anything else. Thanks so much for reply! Best regards, a worried father to his daughter,
EA APP Won't Open Game
Hi, I do hope I have the correct place to mention this. I was able to play my game, initially, after I patched a day after the latest update hit. I did figure out how to get the game to read my saves, thankfully. But so far, in another Sims 4 game folder, the game can't read my Mods. This, even after I saved the new game I started, and went into Game Options to turn the mods back on. I saved and exited after I reactivated the mods. Still made no difference yesterday. My initial game folder I can play the game, and the mods show up just fine. But I wanted to work on a different game, which requires different mods from my other game. I was able to get the App to open and start my game, this morning. I checked a few things out while I was there, and deemed, I would try the newer game in the other folder. In fact, when I looked at the files in the second game folder, there seemed to be a few things missing. I checked on the third folder I had, and decided to move the saves, Tray and Mods folder into that one, just to see if the missing files were the problem. Saved and exited like normal. Can I get the App to open my game again? No. I am having fits about now. I even attempted to install a new EA App, but the App informed me it was already installed. Okay. I restarted my computer and tried to open the game again. It's a no-go. I'm grossly unhappy and close to being furious at this stage of the game. What the heck is going on? Please help.
Cottage Living Glitch-Sims stuck in one position
I don't use mods at all! Never did! I purchased the Sims 4 Cottage Living around Christmas time 2024. It was working fine for about a week then when I went to play, when I click on the sims to do tasks they wouldn't respond. I uninstalled then reinstall everything including the EA app. Even after doing all of that the game still wouldn't work. I wouldn't give up so I started thinking what was the last pack I installed. So again I uninstalled the game then reinstalled everything EXCEPT the Cottage Living game and now it works fine. Can EA please look into why Cottage Living is glitching out and not working properly? Date reported: January 18, 2025 ThanksManaged to fix my problem where it crashes during launch after update
So I tried everything possible and that was recommended to do. But what worked for me, is to go to settings on your pc and then to display-graphic. From there you should scroll down till you see The Sims 4. Ones you see it, click on it and a button for ''alternative'' should appear. Click on it, and you will see what graphic perfromance the game is running on, whether it is Nividia or Intel for instance. For me it said that my game was running on Nividia, so I thought to myself maybe this graphic setting is causing it to crash. I then changed and set it to run on my Intel UHD Graphic. From then, I went on to launch the game to see if it made a difference, and it definitely did. My game is finally booting again and working as normal. I went back to settings to change to my dedicated graphic card (Nividia) to try and to see if the problem is still there. I tried launching the game with this setting, and it worked again. Try this method and see if it works for you too. If you have any questions, do ask.
Help please with mod folder issue
I've been away from TS4 a looooonnngggg time and just came back. I decided on a fresh start and deleted my mods folder. I'm limiting myself to just a little CC, no script mods. Problem: Nothing at all is showing up. My path is Documents/Electronic Arts/ The Sims 4 /Mods I have the Resource.cfg script in the mods folder. in game options I have CC turned on. I have restarted my game several times trying everything I can think of.
Sims 4 crashes randomly during gameplay
So, I've been having this issue with my Sims 4 and it's been acting up ever since I finally got it to work. Usually, I get to play for a good amount of time for about a few hours, the longest being around 3-4 hours I think. But usually, it's got in the habit of only one hour and it's starting to irritate me because I constantly have to save almost every second. After all, I don't wanna lose progress. I don't know if this is important or not but it recently closed out twice during my infant reaching a milestone, and I don't know if that's a possible cause because it only happened twice. I would love it if someone helped me through the process, I have over 6K mods and I'd hate for that to be the problem. My gameplay is smooth, the only thing slow is just the load-up time and build mode when you click an object. Here's my dxdiag by the way.
EA App Won't let Me Reinstall the Sims 4 game at all!
I was finally able to uninstall the Sims 4 game from My EA App (like the EA Agent wanted me to do) but through the Apps list section, cause the EA App did not give me the option to uninstall the game, (But) now the EA App won't let me Reinstall the game back, it gives me that Game not owned error message yet again. Methods I tried to be able to fix My problem> I have Uninstalled & Reinstalled EA App. I have Uninstalled the EA App & Reinstalled Origin only to be made to go back to EA App, therefore can't use Origin at all. I Have cleaned out the EA App Cache like 10 times. I Have Cleaned out the Temp folder like 5 to 7 times already as well. I have also clicked the EA App Updater like 5 times as well. So the Problem (Can't) be on my end, I need EA Help to be able to get Sims 4 back & installed on My EA App . :(Game downloads extremely slow to external hard drive
Hii!! So, I've been trying to download my Sims 4 game to an external hard drive forever and it downloads so incredibly slow. I've done everything the EA website advises but nothing works (I.E clearing my cache, restarting, and repairing the app). When I download the game on my main hard drive it usually averages 100 MB/s, downloading it on my external hard drive averages 100-70 KB/s. Any solutions?Download slow, only in EA App
Hello, I am re-downloading Sims 4. Issue that I have now, is that I barely hit 1mb download, most of the time I am stuck at 200kb/s. Things checked so far: - Emptied EA cache - Restarted Router & PC - Opened EA App as administrator - Checked download-speed on other apps: Steam downloads with 12mb/s as usual - Tried to download without any other programs open - Pausing and starting multiple times If this goes on, I will probably need a week until I downloaded my 22 packs + basegame. Any other idea?
Game Freezes & then Crashes
Hi! I've run into an issue recently where my game will freeze & exit to desktop without warning every time that I attempt to play. I have no mods or CC, and it seems to happen during every part of the game (CAS, Build/Buy, Live mode). I have repaired the game, un-installed and reinstalled, and have also tried playing with a new save and nothing changes the outcome. I have attached the DXDiag. Hoping that someone can give me some adivce. Thanks!Sims 4 Crashing on Loading Screen
After this update it seems like my game does nothing but crash. At first it was when moving in a new household , so I renamed my folder and did the reset method and that seemed to fix that issue however if I add back in any of my saves or tray files it starts to crash again. After resetting again and not adding in my old saves , the game now crashes every time my sim is invited somewhere and she begins to travel. I have no mods or cc at all, graphics drivers are all updated, I exceed optimal system requirements and I have more than enough RAM.
My game is unplayable since update. Pixels and crashing
I'm unable to play my games completely since the new update. Currently my screen shows complete pixilated and crashing. I can't see anything on the screens to do anything to try and fix it. Every time I make something appear for options the screen menu gets worse and worse. What is going on?
