Re: [RESOLVED] - EA app Error Code EC:204

Still having the error.

I don't feel comfortable doing: 

• Run the System File Checker tool.
• Change UAC Controls within Windows
• Reset Windows Host File

But I have done the other steps. Please help.

I'm getting the same error.

Last logged in today 2 minutes ago.

My report is ID:  f568921e-122a-4169-b1e3-4e29037efdd0.

I completed all except for changing UAC Controls within Windows and

unplugging the modem/router (using hotspot, so can't unplug anything).

I'm still getting the same error code

Hey All,

Thank you for the info. I sent all the info you provided to the team for review. Once they provide an update we will provide one here as well for you.

I've also had this issue. I have tried what you have suggested and I still get error code 204.

Hey everyone, 

Can you all go into the settings of the EA App, and let me know what version of the app you have? You should have the most up-to-date version but wanted to verify which one you have.

App Version: 12.221.0-5478-ed804590c (69462-852bce23d1)

Hello, my App version:12.221.0-5478-ed804590c (69462-852bce23d1) - thanks!

I started getting this same error EC:204 that the others in this thread are getting, today (July 2, 2023) when I updated to the latest version of the app so that I could buy some new packs on sale.  Prior to the latest app update, I was able to play offline, completely disconnected from the internet, as long as I stayed logged in.  Now I cannot do that. 

I am able to launch the game in online mode.  I am also able to launch the game in offline mode if I stay connected to the internet.  But if I am not connected to the internet I can not launch Sims 4 (even in offline mode).  If I am disconnected from the internet (even in offline mode) it gives the error that says the license has expired.

This will be a problem for me the next time a Sims 4 game patch comes out, because I have to wait for my mods to update before I can update the game.  So during that time, I need to stay offline.  We also have unreliable internet connection here, so I prefer to be completely offline and disconnected while playing.

I submitted the error report through the EA help option in the app.

I'm having this error code problem and my game wont launch.  It says failed t launch game due to my internet connection. But that's been checked out and is fine. i aslo get error code 204 when I try to open the game off line. 

I have attached the installer log and the report Id: e3f8b17b-a684-4b25-9c5d-fa20c701d0a4

As usual, EA is lying about having the issue fixed. The guy told me to refer to these steps, after I repeatedly told him there was already a forum entry about it, and many people were saying it didn't work. I told him I'd already gone through all the steps before I contacted them. So he told me to start a thread about it. And I told him, there already IS a thread, and your solutions don't work. He didn't even try to help me beyond referring me to this crap that doesn't work. They know their solution doesn't work, they just don't care.
