@sbl3456I heard that people worldwide are experiencing some similar issues with error codes. It could be a problem with Origin.
- @sbl3456 Did you edit the compatibility of the software you are trying to use?
- @DizzyN3wt No, I'm not sure what that means actually haha. I did recently install an ad blocker program, that is the only thing I can think of that I've done differently at all on my computer.
@JanssJSBasically many of us have been experiencing problems with our dll files when trying to open a specific program or software. The program needs it to function but you don't seem to be receiving those errors. Would you mind right-clicking the windows icon and going to "System" then scrolling down until you find what kind of bit computer you have. You will either have a 32 bit or a 64 bit.
- @DizzyN3wt x64 bit
- @JanssJS Okay thanks. Are you able to open Origin? If so click the game properties and try switching to the other edition of the game.
- @JanssJS The opposite edition will either be a 32 bit or a 64 bit, depending on if you play Legacy or Digital Deluxe.
- @JanssJS If that does not work, check windows for updates. That can be found in the search bar by the windows icon by typing "Check for Updates".
- @JanssJS I ran a hard scan of my drive and then reinstalled the game. It works now!
hey, how did you fix your game? I have the same problem and I can't find a way

Hi! I fixed my game by doing a hard scan of my drive, restarting my PC, and waiting until the next day. I had been receiving errors before that I fixed MSVCP140.dll and VCRUNTIME140.dll. I fixed those and then received the same error that you are getting. Do not download new dll files from the internet as they may be corrupted. I can walk you through any steps you may need.- @DizzyN3wt can you explain "hard scan" for me pls?
@lindseycSure!
I have a link that will explain it better than I can:www.lifewire.com/how-to-scan-a-hard-drive-using-error-checking-2624497
Alternatively, you can try:

If these don't work let me know! I can try and help some other way.- @DizzyN3wt thanks! I've tried everything and my game still won't launch.. super frustrated
- @lindseyc What have you tried so far? It took me a full week to get mine running again so I feel your pain.
