Verifying Game Files

@LinnySue Merged your threads. No need to have two.

Did you get delete your user files when you uninstalled ? If not, try renaming the doc folder: http://sims4.crinrict.com/en/2014/09/resetting-the-game-to-factory-settings-without-reinstalling/

I have the same problem. If this gets fixed, can you email me on [edit: email address removed] and tell me what you did. Thanks!

I've tried this:

1) Reinstalling origin

2) Deleted all sims folders

I've done them but when I logg straight back on it still carrys on with verifying the game.

I just want to play on the sims 4!!

This has worked for me : 

1. Go to control panel.
2. Go to Internet options.
3. Click the connections tab and at the bottom of the window click on LAN SETTINGS.
4. uncheck the option Use a proxy server for your LAN.
5. Click Apply.
6. Close Origin restart the program and computer.

If this doesn't work , your antivirus or firewall could be blocking your connection, try to add origin in your firewall list

Hope this helps
