no, nothing opens. I cant even get to my launcher unless I log into origin. I logged into origin hoping it would triger the launcher to open to download from the sims store but it wont. Origin update is messed up. It has hijacked the launcer and taken over the game as admin. Wont let anyone bypass the launcher to start the game. I havent even played my new install I I am getting errors in my DxDiag that read TS3W file and Origin. I have an open claim with EA and I have reported all of this to them. We have several people postinng in this forum with same problem
