Still won't work!

Hello and welcome to G4TW!

So first, please note that mixing cracked games from different providers might not be the best thing to do. Cracks are coded differently and may not work with each other.

That being said, let's focus on a full G4TW install, since that is what we can help you with 

So please first uninstall everything. If you can, once this is done, use CCleaner or any software that would remove any unwanted residue. Also, if you do not have any data you wish to save (saved games, Sims, lots, ...) delete the Sims 4 folder in your Documents\Electronic Arts.

Once this is done, unzip the Sims 4 archive using WinZip (the others tend to corrupt files sometimes) and launch the setup as administrator.
If you want Get to Work and Get Together, then unzip the archives IN THAT ORDER and copy paste the content as instructed.

Finally, use the latest Ultimate Fix, and proceed identically.

Only once all this is done can you try to launch your game.
If this isn't clear, feel free to post back and we will help you further!

Before I do anything else, I install my Sims 4 NOT on the default one, I change it to my Local Disk D, if I install the Sims 4, it's in the default, so I'm gonna move it to my D drive, and is that all? or do I have to change the thing in the regedit? 'cause it says it's in the default, but I changed it.

I did everything you said, but it still showed the error "Origin is currently not running". I removed and added it back to the Windows Firewall exception list and I changed the reg file, and it still showed the error, please help

Base Game just needs to be installed on C: drive, but after installation you can move it anywhere. There's no need to change registry entries, if you didn't changed them it would run.

Did you move folder from C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts, and put it in C:\Program Files (X86) or anywhere else than first path. 

Take a look at this post and try doing some of suggestions mentioned in that thread.

Good luck and keep us posted!

I moved it to my local disk D

That should do as well. What about your Windows Defender...did you add the install location of your game (on the D: drive) to the "exclusions" too ? Also, what is your Windows system ?

Do you have 32 or a 64 bits Windows computer. On a 32 bits you only have 1 folder Program Files, on a 64 bits you also have Program Files(x86).
Should you have a 64 bits then start your game with the file TS4_x64.exe that can be found in your installation folder on your drive D:, probably something like The Sims 4 - open folder Game - open folder Bin.
Start the first time as an Administrator by right-clicking on TS4_x64.exe and chooe Run as Administrator.

Make sure you have downloaded and installed: The base game - Get to Work - Get Together - Ultimate fix  in that order.
Note: On a 64 bits computer you do not have to temper with AV or Defender.
Check for Origin on your computer, it should not be active anywhere !!!

I have a 32 bit computer, so the TS4_x64.exe doesn't work for me. And I don't have origin installed, 'cause I tried to install it, and tried to open it to see if Sims 4 will work, but it didn't so I uninstalled it. Thanks anyway
