Sims 4 Not Launching - "install an app to open this link" error
SIMS 4 not launching - Every time I try to launch the game either from the EA app directly or via the folder "Sims 4" that I have saved on my desktop, a pop up saying I "need to install a new app to open this link", pops up very briefly, then disappears with no options to click on, etc. It has the symbol for the Microsoft app store next to it if that helps any. It is such a brief pop up that I can't even get a screenshot because as soon as I click or press a button, its gone. If trying to open directly from the EA app, it will sit with a "loading bar" saying "launching Sims 4" but it never does. This is always how I've played Sims 4 on this setup is via the EA app, and I do have EA and Steam installed. I'm logged into my EA account on the EA app. I have tried repairing the app as well via the EA app which did not help. I haven't tried uninstalling simply because I don't know how to not loose my save files if I do that.
