Installing The Sims Windows 10
Please advise how I can reinstall my The Sims 2 on Windows 10.
Forum Discussion
@GregEccleston11 , Origin is the EA program that allows the digital versions of their games to run. Most of their newer games (Sims 3 & 4) run on this platform. Sims 2 does also, but it is no longer available for purchase in their catalogue.
And yes, the game is still able to be played and run on Windows 10. Did you need help installing the game?
I need help installing if you could guide me through please
@GregEccleston11 , did you copy everything from Disk2 to the Disk Image? It should automatically recognize Disk2 and start installing it. Just checking all possibilities.
@Kelseymartinx , did you read my post on the first page of this thread? If you are having trouble installing the game from the disks, you will need to follow those steps in this post to install the game.
Thanks for sticking with this. Attached image is the folder structure. Does this answer your question?
Update: I moved everything from the subfolders to main folder; e.g. Sims2_2 to Disk2 & that seems to have done the trick. Now to see if I can load all the extensions I have & then the big test, whether I can restore all my existing files (about 14 years worth of saved Sims!). Thanks again for your help. Greg
Have managed to install all the disks & expansions. The latest is The Sims 2 FreeTime, which used to always work. When starting the game, from disk or Hard Drive, I receive the attached Play option. When I click on it, the game doesn't start. Nothing happens at all. ☹️
