The game won't launch, I can't even get to a loading screen, it doesn't even open a new window...
Every time I try to launch from the desktop, or origin it won't even open at all. I keep getting a message that says "The Sims 4 has stopped working".
I've tried EVERYTHING that has been suggested by mods, and quite a few things suggested by other users and nothing seems to work.
I've tried:
Running after cleanboot
Changing / disabling anitvirus settings
Repairing it through Origin
Updating my drivers
Windowed mode...
Uninstalling and reinstalling (MULTIPLE times)
running in different compatibilities (XP, windows 7)
moving the .exe files from the bin folder and replacing it blah blah blah
If anyone could help or suggest something new it would be much appreciated.

I'm in the same boat as you, really have no clue what else to do

A complete reinstall of windows has solved my problem.
Feels bad.

Yup - a complete re-install of Win 8 pro and I was able to start the game, first try. An extreme fix but it seems to work.
