failed lauch issues

I'm experiencing a persistent issue with The Sims 4 where the game fails to launch and displays a "Failed to Launch" error. This has been happening for quite some time now, and despite multiple attempts to troubleshoot, I haven't been able to resolve it.

Error Message: "Failed to Launch"
Troubleshooting Steps Tried:
Restarted PC
Reinstalled EA App
Repaired/Reinstalled The Sims 4
Checked for Windows and GPU driver updates
Disabled antivirus/firewall temporarily
Cleared EA App cache

Despite these steps, the issue persists. I'm not using any virtualization software, and my system meets all the requirements for the game. I would appreciate any guidance or support to help resolve this issue.
Thanks in advance!

    I've tried all that and I've tried contacting help centre. After trying all kinds of things, the person said only the in-game team can do anything now. I feel like it may be something they did to the game that really messed it up.

    Wish they fix the problem. Many people have exactly the same problem. 

  • Same here! Thought it was a mod first, but nothing I did worked. Must be an issue with EA itself 

  • me too! been trying for almost 2 hours. tried about everything. game wont launch.
