I'm at my wits end. I have followed EA's recommendations to get Sims 4 to stop giving me error code 00008:
- Cleared out caches within the EA app, then restarted it.
- Inactivated NordVPN security as a background protection to make sure it doesn't interact witht he game.
- Restarted the router for possible connection issues.
- Uninstalled and then reinstalled the EA app from the the EA website.
- Restarted the whole computer.
Same problem still exist and I can no longer load my previous games and it continues to give me the same error code: 00008 download error.
I would love to purchase some add-on additions to my Sims 4 game but I am not willing to do so if the base game is not working. I am not a computer whiz and the above steps are all I know what to do.
Is someone able to help me figure this out?
Thank you in advance!

It seems this might be an issue with SDX.
I saw these instructions in an older thread. Hope it helps 😊
- Make sure your game is updated to the latest version.
- If you're still seeing the issue with an updated game, try this:
- On EA App or Origin, switch to Offline mode
- Launch the game
- Open the game settings and under the Sims Delivery tab -> uncheck "Automatically Download"
- If an SDX delivery is listed as being in progress and broken, you may be able to cancel from that same tab
- Exit the game
- Switch EA App or Origin back to Online mode
- Launch the game
- Open the game settings and under the Sims Delivery tab -> check "Automatically Download"
