Try resetting your sims 4 folder and see if that helps. To do that, move your sims 4 folder (that is in Documents -Electronic Arts - then the sims 4 folder is there) to the desktop. Then try to start the game. If you can start the game, a new sims 4 folder will be generated.
The message you are getting is in relation to the SafeDisk DRM The Sims uses. This driver needed to use the DRM is not available in Windows 10, as it has proven to be a security risk. RockPaperShotgun (a PC gaming site) has more information on this.

Sep 02, 2014 Custom Sims 4 Content. Besides the usual downloadable offered, there is a content called The Sims 4 CC.

Sims 4 Error Message Game Already Running Mac And Windows 7

try this pull your whole my documents/electronic arts/ sims 4 folder to the desktop and try again
I've tried that :( it did not work, but I actually got it working somehow, I created a second admin on my computer. Now it wasn't working on the second admin but when I went back to the original admin the game worked! However it wont save anything I get error code '0' now. what a headache.
Not sure if this will work but load Origin and go to My Games, then right click on The Sims 4 and choose repair. This seems to correct most errors. Good luck.

Uhm RavensHrt i did that and its didnt work and this is why im almost done buying EA and Origin products. i paid 80.47 for sims 4 and now this is happening..
Check Task Manager to make sure the game doesn't think it's already running. You can close it out there.

Make sure you have access to the Pictures folder in your Windows user account. I had an error after I installed iCloud for Windows on my PC saying I didn't have access to my iCloud Photos folder. I went to my User Account folder and double-clicked on the Pictures folder. It was right, Windows said I didn't have access, so I allowed my account access to it again and now The Sims 4 works. This wasn't iCloud for Windows fault, it's just how I noticed it. I had this problem before iCloud for Windows was installed, but thanks to it alerting me to this problem I can now play The Sims 4 again!

This was it.. this is what my problem was.. I spent 2 weeks trying to figure this out for my wife.. and it was a darn permissions thing for the windows pictures / documents folder.
Thank you so much.
I was at the end of my rope trying to figure this out after I updated to Windows 10. I tried everything I could think of, repairing the game, uninstalling/reinstalling, restoring my PC to a backup date, I even tried crying.. and it was this silly Permissions thing for the Sims 4 Documents folder. I would never have thought of this. Thank You sooooo much to the users who suggested this!
Hi, I am having the same problem and error code. I have tried to the best of my ability to fix it the way you said, but I guess I don't know how to allow permissions for it. Could I please get some assistance?

Hello @AceHawkins.
Log out of Origin.
Shut down your computer completely. Start the computer again, then log in to origin, launch the game and see if that helps.
Try resetting your sims 4 folder and see if that helps. To do that, move your sims 4 folder ( that is in Documents -Electronic Arts - then the sims 4 folder is there ) to the desktop. Then try to start the game. If you can start the game, a new sims 4 folder will be generated. Start a new game and test to see if the game is working okay. Exit the game and then add back the 'options.ini' file and the 'saves' , 'screenshots' 'tray' 'custom music ' and 'mods' folders to the new sims 4 folder, replacing the new generated file/ folders with the old file/folders, testing after replacing each one to see how the game is working.
If the problem is still there after doing that, repairing the game may help. To do that, right click on the sims 4 picture in Origin and click repair.

If you are still having problems, uninstall and reinstall origin.

@ceejay402 and @rosemow so I know this is an old thread but I suddenly developed this issue out of nowhere. I cleaned my pc cache, restarted, manually uninstalled origin, etc, all the things EA help suggested.. Moving the sims 4 documents folder to my desktop and then launching worked. I added back my tray and saves etc into the new folder generated on launch and my game works again like nothing happened. Thank you so so so so much!!!!!!
