Run As Administrator Issue and other
First and foremost , Thanks! For everything , community and the site. Love this
Normally I dont have an issue , but recently went to Win10
Now I'm having an issue. I downloaded Sims 4 from here all the way up to Cats and Dogs.
Followed install instruction , did it in row. Followed the forums methods as well.
Even made sure was offline cause I'm paranoid like that.
Now when I try to open the game, I get two errors
One says I must run as Admin without Origin open.
The other starts to look like its loading , I get a black screen then a white
it then says that origin is not running and must be running to open the game. (Meanwhile I've tried both origin running and not)
I'm unsure how to proceed.
Any and all help would be grateful.
Thanks so much.

THE origin not running error
This error can only by caused by:- Origin (or ZLOrigin) is still active/running on your computer. Close all instances of Origin/ZLOrigin.
- Your installation folder for the Sims 4 (or a copy of it) is still within another directory Electronic Arts, Origin, ZLOrigin, Origin Games or ZLOrigin Games. MOVE it to f.e. Program Files(x86)\The Sims 4 by Cut/Paste.
- Your anti-virus has disabled the crack Rld.dll and/or RldOrigin.dll in your installiaton folder\Game\Bin.
- You placed a copy of TS4.exe or TS4_x64.exe on your desktop instead of a shortcut.
Reason 2 is often caused when you installed the base game from G4TW's download as this download automatically places the game in C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4.
So MOVE, not COPY, it out of the folder Electronic Arts.
Reason 3. is caused when you have not placed the installation folder The Sims 4 AND the folder where you extract Winrar downloads in the exceptions of your anti-virus.
Extract your highest installed DLC again and copy the folder Game again to your installtion folder.

Re: Run As Administrator Issue and other
Thanks to you both for helping it , so far moving the folder out of the default install location has worked.
Figured I'd try that before the Validator and got lucky!
Can I ask why this solved the issue? I'm curious

New Issue , I went through the trouble of making my sims, however when I go to place them the neighbourhood screen is either all white (even after leaving it for about 30 min) or if it does show up, I can't actually place the family. I got close once and the game crashed. I was able to choose the family however when choosing to place the game went into the loading screen then crashed.
