Hello
I have downloaded the legacy edition and deleted it and re-downloaded it multiple times but no matter what I do, I keep getting the same error message. Can you please assist? The error message is below:
Unable to start:
Unable to start due to missing game data. Please download The Sims 4 Legacy Edition from Origin.

Hi everyone!
When you open The Sims 4 game details page, then select the Extra content tab and scroll down, does Legacy Edition show as installed for you?:

@EA_Mai I downloaded the legacy thing but there’s a pop up saying: Initialization error at start up

@liaaa97 Does your error message also ask you to download Legacy Edition? Is it exactly the same error message?:

I'm asking because there's another issue for which the error message is similar but not exactly the same (lots of numbers as well!): https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues-Mac/Re-Sims-4-Initialization-error-at-startup/m-p/8416281...
Edited: Ah, I see - sounds like the other one, could you please take a look at that thread and try some of the suggestions in there?
