"Cannot start because the below file appears to be corruped. If this file is a mod please remove it and try again. If not , please repair or reinstall the game via origin" and the name of the file ( its a mod) , tho i have no file in this name, I have also tried to repair the game , it iד still not working and i can't open the game.

I need your help.

Thank you.

  • Please try this:

    1. Drag your whole Sims 4 folder from Document > Electronic Arts to your desktop. See this to make sure you're in the right one: https://sims4.crinrict.com/eng/2018/07/how-to-find-your-user-folder/ 
    2. Run a Game Repair in the EA App.
    3. Launch Sims 4. It should start, and you should get no list of mods on launch, and you should have no option to load a previous save. Reset your Options.
    4. If that works, start adding content back into the new folders.
