Origin is currently not running.

undefined wrote:Hello,
I had the same problem. I was able to play the game at home, but when I was at my parents' house I tried to run it again and I got the Origin error. 
On this forum I read that EA sometimes 'blocks' IP-adresses.
I uninstalled the game and re-installed it (including the base game and get to work). After that I disabled my WiFi and then ran the game. It worked perfectly! Just remember to disable your WiFi before playing. I only have this problem at my parents' house so I think the problem is with their IP-adress, however if I try to play it with an internet connection at their house I have to reinstall the entire game before I can play it again. 
Hope this helps!

Hello and welcome to the forum,

Have you had a look at this thread too?

Other than that, what is your anti-virus program ? Have you tried de-activating it completely ? Then, re-apply the Get to Work files first, and then again Get together.

As a last resort, try uninstalling your anti-virus and re-boot the computer. Then repeat the re-applying of Get to Work, and then Get together. Good luck !

Hello and thank you for your reply, 

I already read that thread and i already tried it, but origin warning still show up. My anti-virus is SMADAV, my friend recommended that. I think i already deactive it completely, but i will try to uninstall my antivirus and reinstall sims 4. I will reply again after i have time to uninstall my antivirus.  (Sorry that i can't tell you the result right away)

Also this problem show up after i use a new internet connection, downloaded some cc, and scanning my pc with antivirus. (But i think because i scan my pc, something is missing and the sims 4 can't be opened.)

Thank you for responding to my problem! 

Ps. If you think the solution of this problem is beyond your part to help, just close this topic, thank you

No problem at all, and I'm sorry I couldn't help further. But yes ! You should consider uninstalling your anti-virus and then also re-booting the computer. Then re-apply the files from "Get together", and see if that makes any difference.

Hello~

I already tried uninstalling my anti-virus and reinstall sims 4, but there is no difference. 

I also tried to install sims 4 to my another pc.
First, i just play the base game without any pack, it works
And i copy get to work file, it works;
But when i copy get together file, origin warning show up. 
Is there a solution for this problem? 

Sorry for giving you a trouble, and thank you! 

But you should move this folder named "The Sims 4" OUT of Electronic Arts and into a different location. For example, directly under "Program files(x86)". Good luck !
