Re: Missing TS4_x64.exe

I did repair the game but nothings happening. I don’t see the file. When I went to the Bin in the Sims 4 folder is still not there. I meaning I did update the game but no TS4_x64.exe file. If he saying “Windows cannot find C:\Games\The Sims 4\game\Bin make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again.” or “An error while unpacking: Unable to write data to the disk!.”

    @ggytygku--Origin should have downloaded the missing .exe file, this is what the repair was for. are you perhaps using an antivirus/firewall? if so, refer to its FAQ so you can add Origin to its exceptions list.

    that said, the last error message is proper suspicious, for lack of a better word. if you got your game through an 'alternative' source, it's likely that this troubleshooting won't help.

    First, uninstall the antivirus, then fix the game on Origin and check if the game starts.
    Install the antivirus again and add the following files to the exceptions
    1, Origin.exe - in Win10 it is sometimes only called Origin without the exe end, but it is the same file.
    2. OriginClient.Service.exe
    3. TS4.exe or it will be just TS4 without the ending
    4. TS4_x64.exe
    All these files are located in the Program Files (x86) folder
    However, while Origin is easy to find, you must know the path to the game files
    Origin games> The Sims4> game (search for g letter of this folder)> Bin and Bin_LE
    In each Bin folder, there is one file with the initial name TS4 and each one must be added to the exceptions
