Hi there, 

I'm sorry to hear that you're unable to launch SimCity. Thanks for sharing the screenshots, that helps us identify what could be causing the problem. 

According to the error message, it seems that you might be missing administrator privileges to run the game. Have you tried running the EA app as an administrator yet? If not, please give it a go. In case you need instructions on how to do that, please see: 


  1. Locate the App:
      - Find the app you want to run, either on your desktop, in the Start menu, or in File Explorer.
  2. Right-Click the App:
      - Right-click the app icon or file name.
  3. Select 'Run as Administrator':
      - From the context menu, click on "Run as administrator."
