Re: [CURRENT ISSUE] Sims 4 already running

As of 6/9/2023

I have been experiencing this issue.

I've uninstalled, reinstalled, cleared my cache, saves, and mods. Deleted, uninstalled, and reinstalled the Ea App. I do not have Origin downloaded like I was suggested to do by the EA Team. This is insane. 

it keeps throwing the code:

unable to start:/ the sims 4 is already running./ [ea35e0ea:29f00e76:00000000: 18a1dd51]

Please Help!!!!!!!

    @Courtneyyyy365  Is OneDrive running on your computer?  If so, try pausing syncing before you try to launch the game.  Right-click the cloud icon in the lower-right corner of your screen to see the option.

    If that's not the issue, what antivirus do you use, and does it helo to set exceptions for TS4_x64.exe and EADesktop.exe?
