Same. I haven’t even played the game yet, though it still says that message. I don’t have the holiday pack, either.

Show your parents this and have them do it.
Please uninstall Origin. Then go to the following link to download the latest version of Origin:
https://www.origin.com/dnk/en-us/store/download
Install this and the error should go away.

Hi there!
I managed to solve the problem with a rather drastic solution, I wouldn't recommend it if you haven't tried out all the other propositions in this thread.
So for context, in my case I played Sims 4 for a long time ( +400 hours ), had 14 extensions/packs/kits... you named it. And I didn't played for a while, when a week ago I had this urge to play again. There was this new kit out, the "First animal" kit and I brought it then download it. The Sims 4 and Origin had already made automatically all the updates so once it downloaded, I tried to play the game. Tried, being the key word here. Nothing worked. I tried literally everything in this forum, one by one, uninstalling/reinstalling both automatically and manually.
I even tried another solution who worked for some, deplacing the folder 'The Sims 4" into another path ( there is some video out there about this ). I downloaded CCleaner... Nothing. Couldn't make it work. The helper in the tchat was friendly, but couldn't give me a good solution either. I was just fed up.
So what is this "dramatic solution" I'm here for?
I formatted my whole computer. Meaning I deleted everything ( after saving a backup on another hard drive of course ) and reinstalled windows + other applications ( Origin and The Sims 4 in those applications, obviously ). It's a hardcore solution, yes.
BUT I recommend it for those who are pretty sure some weird things are going on on their computer, like viruses walking around, those who's computer is real slow ( generally caused by said viruses ), ... All of you who even thought about formatting your computer sometimes soon, well, this works!
I knew some viruses were happily living their old days in my computer, and I was going to delete/reinstall everything within the following months because my computer was so slowed down and bugging everywhere. It just happened earlier than I thought.
Just to warn you guys through, this is going to take a day to two days to do ^^
Hope someone might get helped by this

How do you check if origin running?

You can see it in your System Tray or in the Task Manager.
