Re: Sims 4 says invalid license reason code = Missing DLL msvcp120.dll error 0xc1

@Trova2 

Did you install yesterday's update?

Hi I have this problem also, EA games and Microsoft support have tried various things, including your advice.  Sims 3 works fine.  Please help.

Please try to run this command "SFC /scannow"

Hi Microsoft support have tried that before, and I have just tried it again, no luck. In your experience would you say its a Microsoft issue or a game issue?

Yes, I did.

Please try to run Origin as Administrator and start the game from Origin Game Library. See if that works.

Edit:

Just to make sure You did run both the x86 and x64 installers from both of the directories from the image I posted earlier?

@Trova2 @jashingtons 

Hi, I've just tried it, same error code shows.  Yes I did the update yesterday too.

@jpkarlsen 

I have already run the x86 and x64 installers and ran Origin as Administrator and still, the error is not gone.
