Game Won't Launch

I turned off Wi-Fi for going offline initially but once it launched turned WiFi back on, now I haven't turned my pc on in over 14 hours so no idea if it's been fixed yet but that's what I had to do yesterday.

Did you disconnect from the internet or operate in offline mode in the app? What worked for me was selecting offline mode in the app. I didn't turn off my wifi or anything.

I shut down my computer then went to EA app, top left corner you'll see three little bars and put it into offline mode. 

Opened TASK MANAGER and shut down all EA programs. 

Once in offline mode in EA, turned off my WiFi snd reopened EA APP then hit the little blue play button in EA app ( in offline mode). iF it don't launch READ BELOW 

DELETE Accesory and Group folders in the My Documents/EA/Sims 2 Legacy folder

and press Sims 2 little play button when your in offline mode helped me.

I wish it worked for me, but it doesn't. I even disconnected my computer from the internet and tried to launch it (one of the proposed solutions in another thread) and it didn't launch.

I will give it a try!

As soon as I get off work, I’ll try that! Thank you!

Can confirm, going offline works. 👍

Had this issue! It was fixed by me going to ea and clicking go offline and then in the offline menu click the play button next to where it says sims 2 and it will launch!
