  1. Sims 4/windows 10 issue


    I recently updated my sims 4 and now I am getting the message “the application was unable to start correctly 0xc00007b”. It was not doing this until I updated the game. Has anyone else had this issue?

  2. Unable to play Sims 4 on Windows 10

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community

    As per the description, I understand that you are facing an error "The dynamic library "rld.dll" failed to initialize (E1103)" while launching SIMS 4 in your computer. It seems like the issue is related with the inconsistency in the system files or
    driver update. I will certainly help you with your issue.

    • Did you make any changes to the computer prior to this issue?
    • When did you install SIMS 4?
    • Have you installed any updates before/after installing the game?

    • Click the tab Driver, click Update Driver.
    Note: I also suggest you to update the display card driver from the computer manufacturer website as well.

    Please confirm with the SIMS 4 support if they have released any patches for this game.

    I would suggest you to perform clean boot and check you are able to play game.

    Putting your system in Clean Boot state helps in identifying if any third party applications or startup items are causing the issue. You need to follow the steps from the article mentioned below to perform a Clean Boot

    Refer to the link to perform clean boot.

    Sims 4 deleting custom content

    Hello KayleeAdams,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

    To address your concern, kindly help us with the following questions:

    1. Which version of Windows is installed on your machine?
    2. Are you accessing the game on Xbox device or Windows PC?

    I would suggest you to enable custom content option and see if that works. To do that,

    • Go to Game options > Other >
      Enable Custom Content and Mods.
    • If it isn’t ticked, place a tick mark and
      exit the game.
    • Later, get back to your game and see if your custom context is present.

    If the issue persists, I suggest you to contact The Sims 4 Official Support from the following link:

    https://help.ea.com/en/the-sims/the-sims-4/

    Regards,

    Mala S
