EA App & Sims 4 won't load

I'm having the same issue. I was messing around with this all day. Did a reinstall and the game would launch. I closed out of the game and tried launching it again and it would not open. 

I found a work around. Go to your game folder: EA Games\The Sims 4\Game\Bin or Steam\steamapps\common\The Sims 4\Game\Bin and and delete TS4_Launcher_x64.exe. Once its deleted repair your game and try to launch it. It worked for me using the Steam Version.

Edit: If you have Gshade try uninstalling it. That was also causing my game not to launch.

Lauren1464  Please try playing in a clean user folder.  Move the entire Sims 4 folder out of Documents > Electronic Arts and onto your desktop.  When you launch the game, if it launches, a clean folder will spawn with no content.  (Your saves and other content will be intact in the folder you've moved but temporarily unread by the game.)  Don't add anything to the new folder yet; just see whether you can get far enough to start a new save and play in live mode for a bit.

If you still can't play, please provide a dxdiag.  Hit Windows key-R, enter dxdiag in the run box, wait for the scan to finish, click "Save all information," and save the file to your desktop.  From there, you can attach it to a reply using the paper clip (Attachment) icon included with the other formatting buttons.
