Sims Medieval won't launch on Windows 10

Turns out the link they had first directed me to was the wrong one, I managed to register the game with origin now and can download the digital version

I can confirm this works.

There are 2 ways to enable SecDrv ......described here:

The 1st takes you via the cmd function - this did not work for me - it blocked the command but the 2nd method did. 

Using the Registry you add secdrv and assign a value. Sounds complicated but the detailed descriptions AND screenshots makes it easy. Honestly.

I did completely uninstall the game ( I had both disc and download) before making the system changes and then re-installed after; I don't know if that made any difference but thought it wise to do so.

Uninstall all versions of your game.  Reinstall but don't put in the new update!  The last update just won't let the game play on Windows 10.
