Sims 4 crashes immediately

Click play in Origin and the button just fades out for a few seconds then goes back being clickable, I can see TS4.exe and ActivationUI.exe (which closes almost instantly) in taskmanager followed by windows problem reporter opening. both then exit although i get no error messages coming up.

I've tried running everything as an administrator, with various compatability settings, disableing antivirus and a clean boot, deleting everything in C:\ProgramData\Origin\ but with no luck.

I had no problems with the CAS demo.

here's an error log i found in windows action centre

    I have the same issue, 1 day talking with EA workers and no one know to solve it, I'm really bored and tired.

    Do you have (or had) the sims 2 installed?

    I found another log in C:\ProgramData\Origin\Logs called IGO_Log.TS4_5344 which mentions the sims 2 and the sims 4 which seems a little unusual.

    the sims 2 folder it refrences is just a bunch of empty folders left behind after uninstalling, deleting it changes the log slightly but it still has a refrence to the sims 2.

    i'm going to purge any refrence to the sims 2 on my computer and reinstall the sims 4, worth a try i suppose.

    Didn't do anything, here's the log after reinstalling if it's any use to anyone.

    TheSims4_TS4_OnlineActivation_Log.html claims the licsence is fine maybe i'm wrong in immediately assuming it's some over zealous and poorly designed DRM problem

    Now that I look at it in the morning the above is a bunch of nonsense that has nothing to do with the sims 2, although i don't get why there's 2 backslashes between Bin and Core in the directory path

    Tech support here is absolutly useless, wait half and hour to talk to someone and then they do basic stuff any idiot would try. then they unilatarally decide your problems solved. Forget this game i'm gonna get a refund

    yeah there seems to be a few, i'd be a lot happier if someone from EA would at least say they were looking into it.
