MacBook Air 2020 - "Sims4 Already Playing" Error - Now freezing at startup
I have MacBook Air 2020, macOS Big Sur (version 11.0). I've downloaded Origin and Sims4. After some time playing the game I will try to open the game and it will give me the error that 'Sims4 is already running'. I've looked up other suggestions (such as moving the Sims4 folder from Documents to Desktop, opening the game, then putting the saves from the old folder into the new folder). That worked before. However, now the game just freezes when I open the game and get to the Sims4 load screen (before the new game/load game screen). I uninstalled the game through Origin, reinstalled, and tried again and the same thing is happening. I was going to just delete everything (Origin, Sims4, and saves) but I figured I'd try this first.
