The origin reset tool didn't do anything. Can I just delete the Electronic Arts folder completely?

@ayyysims3  The Origin reset tool definitely did something, but you wouldn't notice the absence of the files it removed unless you knew where to look.  The Library folder is hidden in macOS.

Yes, you can delete the Electronic Arts folder; the Sims 3 folder inside is the user folder I described earlier.  If you install and open the game again, a new Electronic Arts folder will spawn.  If however you play Sims 4 as well, you don't want to delete that folder, because Sims 4's user content is in there too.

    I'm going to try this method. I only play TS3 so it won't be a problem. Thank you!

    I redownloaded it and now I'm stuck on the loading screen entering a new town. I'm done trying to get this game to work. Thank you for all of your help.
