Just a curious question, but why wouldn’t it run? An update doesn’t change your computers specs afaik.

I just don't like they removed the select move button from the toolbar. It came in handy when moving CC around. You shouldn't have a problem running sims.

I don't know!. It just came to my mind and I actually paused the download to wait for answers. I did a search to see if people had problems with running the game and a few said they had. Obviously I don't know if they had mods installed etc but I got worried.
But hopefully it will be fine as my laptop specs are more than adequate to run the game. Thanks.

Thanks.

I upgraded a couple weeks ago, and my game is running fine.

Ok. That's good to know. Thanks

My game runs good too, and while I may not like some of the features in W11 my Sims work well with it.

I am waiting for Window 11 to be able to be installed on a i7 processor.

No, it doesn't change the computer specs, but changes to an operating system can create conflicts - much like how when the game is patched, some mods won't run properly because something in the coding of the game changed how it interacts with the mod. Same with an OS - sometimes the OS coding will interact poorly with a game's coding and they just won't work together.

Luckily, so far in my experience with Sims 4 and Win11, they're working together just fine, unless Win11 is what's causing the icons for my control menu bar (where you enter build mode, go to manage worlds, open the gallery, change which level of the building you're in you're looking at and so on.) The last two times we've gotten a patch, the icons have changed, First, only the gallery icon changed, but now they're pretty much all screwed up and it's hard to tell which function is where sometimes. Has anyone else encountered this? Could that be Win11 or is it something people who are still on Win10 are encountering? Or is this just something weird that's specific to me?

Mine has been on Windows 11 for about a month now and other than screen snip not working everything has pretty much continued as it was before. Surprisingly the upgrade was pretty quick and even the screen snip not working got a windows update emergency update to fix it within a week.
