At My Wits End "Error During Startup.." [SOLVED]

I seriously have no idea what happened. I suddenly got the Error: "There was an error during startup. Please see log for details." Should I post my log or something and maybe you all can help? If so, let me know how and I will. But for now, I'm lost!

I have every single expansion pack and stuffs pack and the game was working just hours ago. I tried the ultimate fix, but nothing. I hope you can help!

I'm sure you'll all try to direct me somewhere for instructions, but they haven't worked yet either, just a heads up. :/

That including:
-How to install the sims correctly
-Can't Update to sims 3 (manual patch)
-The registry keys don't apply since I haven everything, so forget the video

Quite a few posts like that. I'll keep you posted if I fix it myself but hopefully, some help here would be great. Thanks a bunch.

Hello,

Did you change, move, remove or rename any of the installation folders?

Nada. That would cause some serious issues I'd never risk taking lol

//EDIT

Here's what I DID notice yesterday.

See? I have two of these:
TS3W.exe
TSLHost.dll

I
have two of each. The extra have a (2) beside it. Now, I tried the
launcher, still an issue, then I figured I'd remove them to see if that
was the issue. It's not. Here are all the fills in my bin in my program
files:
As in- ElectronicArts/The sims 3/Game/Bin:


https://i.servimg.com/u/f46/17/96/29/06/game_b11.png
and
https://i.servimg.com/u/f46/17/96/29/06/game_b12.png

That's everything is my base game bin.

I redid the patch, problem is when I replace, it lets me but it doesn't techniically replace the files. It lets me after it asks, and then when I look at the modified date it still stays the same. This error is ticking me off X_X

im having that same problem except i didnt find any doubled files in my Base game and i tried all the same things as you, even used the alternate way of installing the game thats shown in the how to install the sims 3 correctly... but i keep getting that error and i still have no idea where that log thing is... so im as lost as you...

WoeHawthorne: Rename the two files prior to moving the #Crack Files, like just doing TS3W.exe.backup or something just to make it not actually exist anymore.

Chris92: Please make your own topic, so we can provide you personal support.

i figured out mine and i had made a my own post that message i sent was to say that once i figure out was was wrong with mine i could tell you.... which i fixed mine with help from the email version of asking them but you can try this maybe you have this same problem, https://games4theworld.forumotion.com/t6052-error-during-startup-see-log-for-more-details-fix
doesnt hurt to check.... maybe it'll be whats wrong... hopefully... anyways Good luck

Just what would the Admit be looking at? I'm pretty sure I'm using the crack files, yet the date still won't change. Thanks for your suggestion Chris92, but my registry are okay since I have them all for my expansion packs and whatnot. If the admin needs to see something I'll be happy to post what I can!

//EDIT

Alright, here are my two files' properties.

TS3W:


TSLHost



See,
it says that I accessed and created it (I actually just retried
redownloading the fix and replacing the crack) but the modified date
will not change on either one.

Hello,

Please contact me via the Forum's chatbox when you see me online on the Forum.
I'll try to solve the problem for you via TeamViewer, if you don't mind.

No need! I performed a system restore and repair where some of my applications weren't working properly for the date 12/29/12. And now my Sims is working since I restored it before that date (the first) where things weren't working! I literally squealed. xD Thank you all so much! I hope this issue doesn't come back but in case it does, I'll ask for help again. You're helpful as can be. Tyvm ALL of you. <3333

Hello,

That's odd, but glad to hear it's working now!
Enjoy your game to the fullest and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need more assistance!
