Re: Sims 4 refusing to open up after the November patch 2020
Hi everyone
as this thread is becoming a bit of a collection of things, I made a new master for the Not opening issue.
There are quite a few issues so please use the ones your issue. That makes it easier to help. Do try the solutions already given in the threads:
- If your game crashes, please use this thread: [CURRENT ISSUE] Game Crashes after November 2020 Patch ( If you are NOT on a Windows PC. Please use the threads listed in the first post for your platform)
- You are booted back to the map and get an error code. More information about that can be found here: [FAQ] Map Reloading/ Error Codes
- You have issues with something not working as expected in the game (aka a bug): Please post in the Bug forum - Create ONE thread per Issue you encounter. Check the compiled list before reporting: [READ FIRST] Compiled list of reported Issues
- You get a Game is already running error message: Nov 2020 Patch Issues - Game won't Open says "already Running"
- Your game doesn't start at all. You can't open it. You get no error Message: [CURRENT ISSUE] Sims 4 doesn't start - No Error Message (Patch 1.68.154)
- You get a VCRuntime Or MSVCP140.DLL Error. Please try suggestions here: [CURRENT ISSUE] Execution cannot proceed because MSVCP140.DLL was not found
- You get an Error Code 0xc000007b. Please post here: Error Code 0xc000007b Preventing Game Startup
- You get an Error Message: Ordinal Not Found. Please try suggestions here: TS4.exe - Ordinal Not Found
- If you loose sound (without having disabled it), please post here: [CURRENT ISSUE] Muted Sounds
- Your Game freezes/Clock freezes but it doesn't crash (probably related to crashing): [CURRENT ISSUE] Game time stops/ Game Freeze (Probably related to Game Crashes)
