Re: Sims 4 won't install
I can't reproduce it now, so sorry that I cannot add the error message. After my last attempts the install seemed to go through but was not downloading anything.
I cancelled it all, started to install through steam, stopped the download and turned off my machine. After about 12 hours I turned it on again, tried to install though the EA app (which worked, with the steam install being at about 80% or so) and I quickly uninstalled the steam version.
Now the game works, but I don't know what solved the issue, my apologies to people reading this later.
