  • The retail version uses the SafeDisc copy protection that had its driver removed from Windows 10. Other than trying to find a way to manually restore the driver (many tried but ultimately failed), your best shot is getting a certain... executable... or buying the game again on GOG, Steam or Origin.

    Hi @doctorblocker99,

    Sorry for the late reply. To add to @plokite95's suggestions - you could also contact one of our advisers through EA Help, they might be able to help you redeem your SimCity 4 code in Origin, so you don't need to purchase it again.

    You will find a detailed explanation on how to contact them if you need it here.

    Let us know if you have any questions 🙂

    -Mai
