sims 4 game data missing or damaged MAC
Hey Big problem over here
I have this message coming up on my game. I have uninstalled, reinstalled, repaired, refreshed my folders. also made a new user on my computer and re downloaded origin on it and that didnt work either. I updated my computer yesterday and everything was working fine prior so i assume it has something to do with that. Message: Cannot start because required game data is missing or damaged. Please repair or reinstall the game via Origin.
I have been trying to get help in the discord servers but so far no luck.
attached our my computer specs
PLEASE SOMEONE HELP
You updated your OS to Catalina? Or was it some kind of other update?
Is it the same error message or is it different after trying different things? Could you please post a screenshot of it?
Does Origin have Full Disk Access in System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Privacy > Full Disk Access?
Give this a try (please make sure there is no Sims 4 folder in your Documents > Electronic Arts folder):
- In your Applications folder right click on the Sims 4 app and select Show Package Contents.
- Navigate to Contents > Mac OS.
- Right click on The Sims 4 and select Move to Trash. Don't drag the file as it will only move an alias and leave the original in place.
- Now open Origin, right click on The Sims 4 in your Games Library and click Repair Game.
