Same error here on 2 different Windows 10 systems and a Windows 11 system. I tried:
- Take ownership of EA library directory with my Windows account
- Grant Full Access to account in EA library directory and subdirectories
- Ran EA Games as Administrator, launch SimCity
- Clear Cache as Administrator
- Run in compatibility mode for Windows 8, Windows 7
- Repair as Administrator
- Repair as logged in Windows account
- App Recovery as Windows account
- App Recovery as Administrator
- Take ownership of SimCity directory and subdirectories with my Windows account (previously owned by Administrator)
None of these worked. However, Bejeweled 3 plays fine and that's around the same age as SimCity. You have more players that want to play Bejeweled 3 than SimCity???
