I don't have my firewall on, i think my graphics drivers & windows OS are updated (not sure), I am running Origin as administrator (can't do it for SimCity as it isn't installed) and I don't think I have Nahimic 2.
Tried to look for the SimCityUserData file but it does not exist, probably because SimCity is not installed but idk
@Reptiles1341 - This error is almost always due to antivirus software blocking. Try rebooting your computer, then turn off your antivirus while you install the game. Remember to run all installation files "as Administrator". If Origin needs to be updated, do that first.
If this doesn't work, try a Clean Boot and attempt to install SimCity again. If it launches, you'll have some detective work to do. Enable one startup program at a time, reboot, try SimCity, until you find the program that is blocking it. Once you find the offending program, disable or uninstall it. You should be able to launch SimCity successfully without doing the clean boot after disabling the offending program.
Definitely post back and let us know whether something worked. If it still won't run, reply back with any error messages you're getting and attach a dxdiag report. How to Dxdiag
