@deelilaa Breakpoint errors can have a few different causes, and it's often a question of addressing each of the potential problems in turn until something works. Among the causes are system issues, and on that note, your dxdiag crashed while running three separate times, which is unusual and could indicate a serious issue, although it doesn't necessarily. So it's best to start with a couple of basic checks of your Windows system files. Here's how:
- Hit Windows key-X
- Choose either “PowerShell (Administrator)” or “Command prompt (Administrator),” whichever option is offered
- Inside the window that appears, copy and paste “DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth” without quotes into the window, and enter
- The system will start validating soon. If it throws an error, please list it here
- After it reaches 100%, hit Windows key-X again
- Again, choose “PowerShell (Administrator)” or “Command prompt (Administrator)”
- Inside the window, copy and paste “sfc /scannow” without quotes into the window, and enter
- Post the message you receive here
Restart your computer, then repair the game in Origin: open your game library, right-click on the Sims 4 icon, and select Repair.
If you get another crash, please run a second dxdiag; hopefully this one will work properly and will have all the relevant information.
for me it said "Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations." is that normal?

@MarsPlanetery Yes, that's normal, and a good thing, as long as you ran DISM first.
What issue are you seeing? Please describe it in detail, and if the game won't open or is crashing, please also run a dxdiag and attach it to a post.
