Close your Origin and reopen to get the newest Origin update. That should fix the issue.

Do you still have the small window or just the stuck on loading ? Are you using custom content ?

Yeah, I hate that my sims 4 games aren't working I am trying everything by updating and getting rid of my cc. My sims 4 game loads fine until the Sims 4 logo and copyright sign and then it just goes right what am I supposed to do?

Hi @big622
Try resetting your user files as described in the factory reset described in this post: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4/FAQ-Troubleshooting-Steps-amp-Known-Issues/m-p/3621199
You won't loose anything. Just make sure to not delete any files and make a backup.
After renaming, repair your game by right clicking on the game in Origin.
Try on a new game with nothing added back first (start new game). If it works, put back your save game and try again. If it still works, you can start putting stuff back.
- Options.ini (or just re-set all your settings manually)
- Tray Folder
- Screenshots/Videos/Custom music
- Rest of the save games (leave out slot_00000001.save which is the autosave)
- Custom content like clothing, hair, skins, make up ....
- Mods (one by one, making sure they all still work)
The rest does not need putting back, cause they are mostly cache files that recreate or log files that are not needed for the game.
