Force quitting "EA background services" in task manager (ctrl+alt+del) fixes it for me, but it's getting annoying having to do this every time I want to open a game.
Nothing I did worked. Not end task, not app recovery, not offline mode, not reinstalling, not EAUpdater, nothing. I'm still having this issue. The game (Sims 4) don't even list under the "Installed Games" in the EA App as it says "managed by steam" but when I try to launch in steam I get this error. Library refuses to load. Because of that I can't even try the download APEX method.
Really though, after reading hundreds of pages I'm not optimistic about this getting fixed.
