I purchased The Sims 4 several days ago, and while I was able to log into my account and redeem the PC digital code, I can't install Origin. It's been oh so many hours of research and trying anything I could find. The first errors I ran into were missing files - one was msvcr140.dll and I can't remember what the other was... I researched those first and applied the fixes I could find. Which is when this error showed up. The ever-popular "This application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b). Click OK to close the application." I have since tried all the things I could find to fix this, among them the following things: Insane amount of reboots - to include a "clean" reboot Run as an admin Run compatibility troubleshooter .NET all the things Microsoft Visual C + + all the things (to include deleting and reinstalling all of them...) Update Windows DirectX all the things Run disk check Run sfc/scannow ... and I'm pretty sure many, many more things. My PC is running Windows 10 Home OS 64-bit (version 1909, build 18363.657) with an AMD Phenom II X6 1100T Processor. The only fix I've read and haven't tried is reinstalling the OS altogether. I'm hesitant to do that because I'm not sure it would work. I did the free upgrade in June of last year, hanging on to my old version of Windows as long as possible. I don't have cds or "hard copies" of any sort for Windows 10. I'm at a loss as to what to do now. I've researched and tried to fix this for two days. It's very close to me just giving up and not playing anything that requires Origin. Anyone have any ideas? SolvedINDIAN Server for apex legends please indian players cant play apex legends because the ping is always tooo high please help SolvedEA are liars. Should have known they would play dirty for their BS ea app. Origin is down and my game library has been deleted. We were clearly told it would shut down on April 17, 2025, but on April 6, 2025, my game library has been deleted. Y'all are liars and I hope you burn in hell. why is EA marking my case as resolved? I recently submitted a case about my FIFA 20 account being hacked which was fixed over live chat, but now I opened up another case for EA banning me from the transfer market but they keep marking the case as resolved when it isnt because im still banned. Why do I have to wait 6 months to unlink another account from my ea account? I wanna know why we have to wait six months to unlink an account such as a PSN or Xbox live account and I just don't have the patience for it currently. So please explain why. SolvedBanned for no reason I just bought FIFA for the first time and I log in and see that I’m banned. I check to see why I’m banned and there’s no reason under the reason tab. Now I can’t play and I can’t unlink my account and I doubt I’ll get a response back from ea. does anyone have any advice. When will Origin ID accept Special characters as their own character? I have both contacted Support and the very nice representative claimed to have forward our conversation and ideas to a dev team. with that being said we ran into an issue of characters that are in fact currently allowed yet can't represent being their ow "Character". I have username "123_Example" but i wanted to change it into just "Example" or even "Example_". When talking to the representative they had mentioned that both username were in fact "taken" so they tried their best to help me pursue even further. I then proceeded to ask to check up on other names. and by the end these were all the names we tried. "Example", "Example_", "Example__" "_Example", and "__Example". all 5 names had led to the account of one person with the original name being "Example" however when registered with another Non- Special character after an underscore worked fine. So far this is the first time i have run into this issue among all platform and gaming accounts that i have currently 9 to be exact. I'm sure it's a small fix that would help a much larger pool of community. I can't be the only one to have tried right?
