Re: Opening Origin/Sims 4

Thanks for your reply.  The antivirus issue is one that has been knocking around for a while.  It usually only needs to be disabled for 5 mins until a game actually starts.  It's not related to Origin alone - I know I had the same issue with Kingdom Come: Deliverance, which I bought off Steam and maybe The Witcher 3 but it's been a while since I played that so I can't be certain.  I use AVG.  I know for Dragon Age: Inquisition and Kingdom Come: Deliverance the games would start to open then immediately close with AVG running.  Origin and indeed Sims 4 often seem to open fine with the antivirus running, but as per my previous post, I'm still not sure what the core problem is when it doesn't work.  Unfortunately the instances in which it doesn't work seem to be  more frequent lately.  I don't remember having  issues getting Sims 4 to run before the last month or so.
