Hi, so all of a sudden, I am now getting this error when I try to play my game.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled both the EA App and the Sims 4 game
I have cleared the cache and done a game repair, several times.
Nothing is working.
Has anyone had this issue before, and been able to resolve it easily?
I was able to resolve this issue, simply by removing the Sims4 Folder..
My Documents - Electronic Arts - The Sims 4
I put that folder on my desk top, then launched the game, which started immediately, and created a new Sims 4 folder.
I was not too worried about my previous game saves, but if I wanted to import the saves back into the game, I could have done so.
I don't play with Mods currently, so this was also not an issue.
Ended up being a very simple fix that I worked out myself.
