Re: Windows Compatibility Mode
Windows 10....Most of the gamers stay away of that OS, as it has a lot of problems when it comes to gaming (Windows 8 and Windows 8.1, too). Unfortunately, with Microsoft pushing it , we are forced to install the damn thing.
Couple of things to try: update video drivers. AMD is notorious for 1 drivers works fine, 9 not so well, while Nvidia has a better ratio (6 out of 10 work as intended). So, depending on your video card, try a driver update. Had a similar problem with a different game and it turned out to be the video card driver. Make sure you run the game as an administrator (in compatibility mode). You could also try to run it in compatibility mode with Windows 7. You could also try reinstall all the redistrbutables (directX, Visual C++ redist, whatever Sims 4 needs). You can usually find those in the game's folder.
