The Sims 4 new update
by Layla298Original Post
Problem
Origin alerted me of a new patch but after I update, the game just wants to update again like an endless loop.
Cause
Probably some other mess-up in Origin.
This issue now also seems to crop up with every patch and here's a few suggestions you can try. If none of these help, please post in this thread, stating your antivirus software and what you've tried.
Suggestions
- Clear Origin Cache files
- Reinstall Origin (you will not loose your games by doing this)
- Right click on the game in Origin and hit repair game.
- Change the origin language and back
- Make sure your antivirus software is not blocking Origin from accessing the Sims files
- Disable Auto-Updates
- Run Origin as Administrator
- Download EA Desktop Beta and try to update through that instead.
Good Luck

I updated Sims 4 for the 25/2/20 update, the update finalised. It now keeps saying that I still need to update, I click update and it tells me my game is up to date, but then reverts back to "update" instead of "play". Have repeated this process several times. I can play "offline" but not online.
The attached screen shots are all I see, I see picture a, I click update, I see picture b, then back to picture a
