The Sims Legacy Collection: Will not launch

Hey all!

I just purchased The Sims Birthday Bundle on Steam, and I cannot get the Sims (1) to launch. I'm on Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2. In the #the-sims1 channel of The Sims Discord server, other users mention the same behavior when the app was purchased from the EA App.

    I've brought on EA App for the bonus kits for my Sims 4. I can launch Sims 2 it's fine, but Can't launch Sims 1. I'm so annoyed.
