Re: ReShade/GShade .dll deleted when Sims 4 loads

When todays patch (July 10th) released, it has made the EA app delete a file that G shade needs called dxgi symlink which G shade needs in order to function.

    It seems as though when the EA app updated it has been deleting flies. 

    It has deleted "dxgi" file. One that is important to us who play the sims with Gshade/Reshade.

    ETA: Solution so far, uninstall EA app and re install to version 13.501.1.6009 (A previous version). The 6019 version has the issue. You can get the previous version via the EA website or doing a game repair

    Tysm! Is that a previous version? If so, do you know where I can find it? I've tried, but no dice :(

    I didn't have to roll back to a previous version of the EA App. Reinstalling the current version worked for me.
