sims3launcher has stopped working

★★★★★ Newbie

hello, on thursdy last week I got a new computer, and so I've had to do alot of updates and so on and fourth. Yesterday I downloaded and installed the Sims 3 Starter Pack (sims 3 base + late night & high end loft)  from origin. When I clicked play the launcher would appear and say it was updating. The launcher then disappeared and came up with the message sims3launcher has stopped working. I have uninstalled and re-installed them 3 times, but everytime this has happened. Nothing seems to work, I downloaded the super patcher and patched it manually - that didn't work. I tried playing it from the file path using TS3.exe and TS3W.exe but they just take me to origin, then when I click on the sims and press play the same error message comes up. It is starting to annoy me because I just want to play the Sims 3 in peace, but nobody's solutions seem to work for me. Below I'll post my PC specs. Please if you know how to fix this please help me!

Are you're graphics drivers updated ? Did you try starting the game through the Nvidia experience ?

My graphics drivers are all up to date and even whenI launch it from Nvidea experience  it still gives the error message when it is updated.

Try resetting your user files as described in the factory reset described in this post: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-3/FAQ-Troubleshooting-Steps/td-p/714/

 

You won't loose anything. Just make sure to not delete any files  and make a backup.
