michellefree89 When you say you reset your PC, do you mean you wiped it? If so, did you save any Sims 3-related data and restore it afterwards? If not, is it possible some data is there anyway? For example, OneDrive could have synced your files and downloaded your content after the reset.
The point is, old content could be the problem here, so please have a look and let me know whether anything is there. If OneDrive did download your content, that would probably include old saves, so check the Saves folder inside Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 3.
Please also let me know whether this Sims 3 folder is inside the OneDrive folder in general.
Edit: I've moved your other post into this thread so we can keep all the information about your current issues in one place. Please let me know whether you can play if you restart your computer immediately before you try.
Well, it wasn't a total wipe since I reset the PC locally, not through the cloud and kept my files, so I just had to re-install my apps and programs.
I don't use OneDrive at all so I had disabled it as a startup app and disabled it on the task menu before re-installing the Sims. I am reluctant to remove it from my PC completely though because I run into other PC issues when I do that. I do not have anything in my Saves folder but I do see there is an Electronic Arts folder located inside the OneDrive folder. So really, I have 2 Electronic Arts folders., which I'm sure is causing the conflict.
I did restart the PC then tried to play the game right after but it still crashed in the middle of loading before getting to the Main Menu, and I got the same error message.
I don't know how to keep OneDrive from backing up the EA folder so I'm gonna see if someone at MS support can help me with that. I'll let you know how the game works afterward!
