Re: I accidentally deletet my Sims4 Create A Sim Demo

@Sjanski  Try doing a clean uninstall of Sims 4 and the EA App.  Start with the game:

  • Put aside your Sims 4 folder in Documents\Electronic Arts and rename it to something that doesn't include the words "Sims 4."
  • Download Revo Uninstaller (the free version is fine) from here.
  • Launch Revo, select Sims 4 from the list, and click Uninstall.
  • Once the game is uninstalled, select "Moderate" under "scanning modes," and click Scan.
  • Review the list, in case there's something you want to save; otherwise, click Select All, and then Delete.
  • Close Revo, and restart your computer.

Uninstall the EA App with Revo as well.  I don't have instructions for that at the moment, but the process should be straightforward.  Restart again when you're done.

Install the EA App, then create a new folder into which you'll install Sims 4.  The folder should be on the root level of the drive of your choice, for example C:\Games is fine, but not C:\Program Files\Games.

    @puzzlezaddict Should I rename and the file inside the Documents\Electronic Arts folder? or do I need to take it out of the folder completely?

    @puzzlezaddict I managed to use the Revo Uninstaller to uninstal the EA App, and now im able to at least get onto the app and the Sims 4 is currently downloading. Thank you so much!!!
