Windows 11 and ts4?
Does anybody know if Sims 4 is compatible with Windows 11? like at all? I have the Windows insider beta channel where Insider previews of Windows 11 are installed, so I basically have Windows 11 now...
@essiewik All three of the dumps show out of memory crashes. With 8 GB RAM installed, you'd normally be fine, but something running on your computer is using enough of that and the page file too that Sims 4 is running out of memory entirely. It's not clear from your dxdiag and the crash dumps what exactly this is, but one relatively easy workaround is to increase the size of the page file and see whether it helps.
Hit Windows key-R and enter "sysdm.cpl" without quotes into the run box. In the window that opens, click the Advanced tab, then Performance, then Advanced, then Change under Virtual Memory. Before doing anything else, please take a screenshot of what you see and attach it to a post when you reply, for reference. Now uncheck the box to automatically manage page file size, choose custom size, and set 12288 (that would be 12 GB) as the initial and max size. Click OK, restart your computer, and test.
If you don't want to do this right away, you can try playing Sims 4 with nothing else running in the background, other than Origin of course. But that shouldn't be necessary—8 GB is a common amount of installed RAM, and it's enough for almost all players even when they have several apps open at once.
