I keep getting this message whenever I open try to open the game: Unable to start: The Sims 4 is already running. [ed35e0ea:29f00e76:00000000:18a1dd51]
I have tried EVERYTHING on the other posts, even posts outside EA, but nothing is working. I bought Origin Access to play The Sims 4, but all I get is this error message. I
tried sharing The Sims 4 folder, I tried repairing the game through Origin, I renamed the folder, I ran it on Windows 8&7 compatibility mode, I moved the folder, I checked my
task manager for any running processes, I restarted my computer several times, but NOTHING! I am trying to avoid reinstalling the game because my wifi is incredibly slow.
Any help would be appreciated because all I want to do is play the freaking game I paid for! The problem is not with Origin because all the other games are working fine.
[I am running Windows 10 BTW]
I was having this issue too and i went into game properties through origin, advanced, and changed the "when launching this game, launch in" to 32 from 64 then i opened the game and it worked for me.
