I Can't Connect to the Internet in the Sims 4

★★★ Newbie

Why can't I connect to the internet in the Sims 4?

My Origin account is online, I am connected to the Internet without problems, I allowed Sims 4 in my firewall, I have a full account but hwenever I try to open the gallery or download the free Christmas pack, it just doesn't connect. It attempts to connect but goes on and on and never completes. I have tried everything I saw online but it never worked, I cannot open the gallery and it drives me crazy!!! Does anyone else have the same problem or is it just me?

1. Rename The Sims4 folder to "The Sims4 old"
Step 2. Fix the game in Origin
Origin/Library - right click on TS4 - option "Repair game"
You have to wait until Origin will fix all packs, not only the base game.
Step 3. Turn on the game - a new game folder will be created and you will have two - one old, one new
Step 4. Check if you still have this problem in the newly created game folder
If the problem disappeared and you can connect to Gallery:
Step 5. Delete in the new game folder following folders:
"saves" and Tray.
Step 6. Go to "The Sims 4 old" folder and copy - your "saves " folder.
Step. 7, Paste this folder in a newly created game folder.
Step 8. Do the same with Tray folder and TrayDeleteItems file
9. By the way, you can check if your mods - if you have any - are up to date. If you don't have any mods - skip this step
Copy and paste your mods and CC from old mods folder to the new one. First copy the scripts mods every time checking if these mods are up to date
Step. 10. If all is OK - delete The Sims4 old folder. Now you will have only one game folder working properly.
