raphlt04 Does this happen if you take your computer offline before launching either game? You can sign into the EA App and put it in offline mode, then disable wifi and/or disconnect the ethernet cable before pressing Play.
When you made the new Windows account, was it a local account, as in, not tied to your Microsot account or any email address? If not, OneDrive could still be in play and would explain the issues.
In both accounts, please list the location of the Documents directory as Windows sees it. Search in Windows for Command Prompt, open it, and enter this command:
reg query "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders" /v "Personal"
then post the results. You can write [username] instead of your actual username if you want, but please leave the rest intact.

Hi!
I have tried turning off the Wi-Fi, and the same issue happens.
When I made a new window account, I had to link my secondary email, so I think it's tied to a Microsoft account.
And I'm not sure if this is the correct information, but here is the opening file location: C:\Program Files\EA Games\The Sims 3\Game\Bin
