Installing Sims 4 error: Setup .cab file damaged [SOLVED]
Hey hey dear G4TW peoples,
Last week I downloaded the sims 4 torrent. When i tried to install it, i got an error saying 'setup 3.cab' is damaged and cannot be used. So i thought it might be someting went wrong with the unpacking of the Sims4 file, so i unpacked it again but it still got the same error. Then i thought there might be someting wrong with the downloaded file, so i downloaded the sims4 torrent again and unpacked it again, but i still got the same error, only the number of the 'setup x.cab' file vary each time i try install it (so either 1, 2, 3 or 4 (never had 5 yet).
I'm not sure what the problem is. I hope you might be able to help me. I'll include a printscreen of the error (i'm sorry the installation is in dutch, so the error is also in dutch xD).
I get three options when i get that error: Cancel, retry and ignore. If i click retry, it obviously retries installing, but will result in the same error. If i ignore i get the following error: FDI server error'. So the only option is to cancel.
I hope someone can make sense of this . Thanx anyway for your time .
PS: I luv G4TW
pss: i seem to have trouble uploading screenshots xd lol <--
it says could not upload file: exceeded total storage space (free space: 5)
*EDIT*
xD oke.. Somehow i fixed it myself xD
what i did:
Instead of unpacking the file on my (D:) partition, i unpacked it on my (C:) partition. This fixed it and now sims 4 is installed on my pc.
Can't believe this took me a week to figure out xD <---- still a
But G4TW thanks anyway for being able to post my problems here ^^
Hope someone has any use for this aswell ^^
Bye bye!
