Sims 3 Application Start-Up Failed
When I try to open Sims 3 through Origin it says "Application start up failed: Could not copy preferences folder"
I just purchased two expansion packs, my original sims 3 is through a disc that I no longer have a copy of, if that makes a difference
@mikeismypuppy I'd start by checking your security software to ensure that it's not blocked from making changes on your system. If any notifications show up be sure to let The Sims 3 make the changes.
You could also try toggling on User Account Control to be sure that you get the required permissions request: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-ie/windows/turn-user-account-control-on-off#1TC=windows-7
Thanks, I hope this helps.
