    FIXED!

    I had to uninstall Origin completely and delete the folders. Once I reinstalled the game worked.

Just an extra confirmation: If anyone is having the error code 1966.13:200, download HotSpot and enable its protection. Then you can download and update the game correctly. Just stop the protection and delete HotSpot afterwards. Then uninstall Origin and delete the folders named Origin in the directories C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming. After that, install Origin again and start up The Sims 4. Thank you all posters for your help! You are all a thousand times better than the EA Support! :P
