Having the issue that my game believes its already running, ive tried ending any task related to ea in task master, restarting, logging out and back in, uninstalling and reinstalling the game but it still says game is running? anyone know any ideas? weirdly if i change the date back a few days it works but i want my pc to be on the right time and date?
I FIXED IT! i uninstalled the EA app and reinstalled and it fixed it! anyone having same/similar issue try that!

I'm experiencing the same issue as @lozzajanex2 and @Fabius_SimTube. My game launched perfectly fine until yesterday, and today TS4 and TS3 wont open because they are 'already running'. I used different methods for troubleshooting, but the only thing working is setting my computer date back to june 1. (I only jumped two days forward in time, non working.)
I also logged into my account on my gaming laptop and the game starts without issues.

@keinluigi Does it help to simply remove UserSettings.ini, inside Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4? This is the file that stores data on the daily login rewards you've claimed, and the only thing I can think of that would be sensitive to dates starting a couple of days ago.
- Anonymous2 years agoNot applicable@puzzlezaddict Thing is the daily reward event hasn't even started for me yet. So I don't understand why it's so sensitive about the date.
But thanks for your suggestions.

same here! I don't know what to do, I feel like I've tried everything. I use Avast (can't uninstall or open the app for whatever reason).

@shutupjolie Try setting an exception in Avast for the entire Bin folder inside [install location]The Sims 4\Game.
