Please help asap if you have an answer. This may be a silly question, but I have got a problem with Sims 4 windowed mode. I recently changed it to that and now because the game wont load in windowed mode, I can't think how to change it back to full screen without being in game.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Could you try pressing alt+enter when the game is loading?
If that doesn't work add a -f in the Game Properties, this will force the game in full screen, hopefully you'll be able to change the settings after.
You can find the Game Properties by right clicking it in Origin and choose 'Game Properties' then go to the 'Advanced Launch Options' and add '-f' in the 'Command line arguments' box.

Thank you so much the same thing was happening to me, and the Game Properties tip was a lifesaver!
