  • LizardDrowning​  Are you saying that you click Play in the EA App, and the Sims 3 launcher doesn't open?  Or does the launcher open, you click Play there, and the game doesn't start?

    Please also let me know whether it helps to remove or rename the Sims 3 folder in Documents > Electronic Arts.  This would prevent your saves from loading, but they'd still be intact in the old folder and could be restored later.
