Re: THE SIMS 3 LAUNCHER WON'T OPEN! HELP!

Hmmm what about your game, has it been updated to the latest patch?

Yes, I believe so. However, I wouldn't really be able to check since the launcher won't open 😕mileyfrustrated: But I'm pretty sure it's up to date - I had been playing for a month before this started happening. 

Ok I think I might have some solutions First Try clearing out your DCCache folder just delete everything. If you have saves or CC back them up before hand.

Second: Try clearing all of your DCBackup files and again delete everything except ccmerged.

Third: Check if you have the latest updates by using this application. http://modthesims.info/d/409829 Run this and it will tell you if you need an update.

Hope these work, Best of Luck!

Okay, so as far as deleting the "cache" files, i can't find them (i know right?). I went to C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\The Sims 3 and searched through for the cache files, and got no results. And for some reason the Electronic Arts folder is obselete, only the Sims 3 game/bin folder in the Origin Games folder. >☹️

Oh right for the cache folder and backup you can find it here C:\Users\USER\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3 its in your documents rather then program files x86

Yes - I went there, and the Electronic Arts folder isn't there at all.

........??? 

Should I try un-installing/re-installing it? 

Yes Re do the install and see if this gives you the folder back
