3.3. Option B - Run the Game Directly from the Download Folder [If you did not choose Option "A" Above]
Since this is a Portable Repack of The Sims 4, it should work no matter where you keep your files, as long as the hardware supports it (you don't want to play from a memory card, for example, because it's too slow and sometimes not too resilient).
To play with it right after you finish downloading you just need to open your task manager to verify that Origin is NOT running in the background, then double click on the file TS4_x64.exe below and have fun!
Now, sometimes your computer might be a bit picky and your game might require you to run it as Administrator (or you might want to take this extra step just in case). To do that, you'll open the folder where you save the game on Windows explorer, then right click your TS4_x64.exe file, then Properties...
Now, open the Compatibility Tab, Click on Change Settings for All Users...
Now you want to enable the checkbox "Run this program as an administrator", then OK and OK again.

I don’t want all the new updates, they make the game too complicated- if i pay for the all in one automatic subscription, would there be any way to download it as an older version of the game, like portable is?
I’m willing to pay, even more than the subscription price if you want, for your time, I just don’t want the newest version, or a version that’s going to update itself and ruin my mods
Hello.I’ve jus download the game and I have 0xc000007b error. How Can I fix it?
Hi! I don’t know. You’re using an old version, check your anti virus situation (you need to exclude the folder where the game is and allow/restore any possibly affected items) and remember to kill origin in your task manager, since this error code seems to be related to Origin.
Hey, am I able to get Priority on the download? Thanks
Hi! What do you mean?
On Tixati, can the priority level be elevated, or is that not possible?
No, it isn’t, since I am not seeding myself (from my computer). Sorry. This is a very outdated version of the game, though. All new content is available on The Sims 4 All in One Automatic only…

Hi! Maybe with labs. But which version would you want? I would need to check if I still have it. You’d be unable to connect with it as EA servers won’t allow. 🤔
I don’t mind playing offline at all
Is that what labs is?
So.. I just looked through some of the more recent changelogs to see which version i’d want, and it looks like most of the complicating updates I don’t need can actually be turned off in the menu
So scratch the older version question, sorry- but would I be able to prevent it from updating further, to keep my mods stable, and disable certain DLC packs to save space? Those are the other two reasons I’d want an older version, but if I can do those things it’d definitely be simpler to just buy the current update
Thank you for your time, sorry if my questions aren’t the most well thought out, this is all new to me. My friend had your bundle, but this is the first time I’m getting it myself lol
(replying on this comment, it won’t let me reply to your reply)
Oh no, your questions are very insightful and make perfect sense.
Yes, you can use either version this way. You’d get the last verison and you can right click the folders you don’t want and select “keep on line only” to not synchronize them (it) to your PC.
Lab Version gives you access to the gallery and on line connectino.
Automatic does not. It’s updated automatically via synchronization but if you previously selected existing DLC to not be downloaded, you won’t get it.
And, as always, you can copy the entire folder after fully synchronized somewhere else in your computer (automatic without gallery) if you want a static version without updates.
Finally, if you subscribe to a tier with Lab Access you get both versions. If you subscribe to the tier without Lab you only get the regular Automatic Off Line. I hope this helps. 😇
Premium Access
Please keep in mind that it’s a recurring subscription and that EA’s license for the game or any additional content isn’t included, that’s between you and EA. 😇
it does, thank you! sounds like i only need the standard automatic, then
Yes. It is off line and all content created or edited belongs to “Game Changer” (the user name).
Remember to not cancel if not ready to lose access to the server (monthly subscriptions don’t carry remaining access time to the server, you lose access right away even if you donated for enough for 30 days) and enjoy! 🤗
ignore my 12:47 comment, this one hadn’t loaded on my screen yet lol
3 months was the shortest time available with paypal.
Thank you so very much! I will work on your information right now!
Hello, I have the game downloaded but when I try to play it says “The content of your user data directory were created by a newer version of The Sims 4 and cannot be loaded. Please update your game via Orgin to play.” How do i fix this?
Hi! To have the latest version you need to be subscribed and use The Sims 4 All in One Automatic, but it seems your subscription to Premium Access was cancelled a long time ago.
Yes but I am just trying to download it with torrent. I downloaded “The Sims 4 Hispanic Heritage All in One Portable 1.67.45.1020” and am getting the previously mentioned error. Is there a way to fix this?
Ah! No problem, now I understand it!
I moved your comment to the topic that talks about your version, then.
You need to remove the file “Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4\GameVersion.txt” to get rid of the error.
Can’t use saves from the new version of the game with the old one without risking corrupt files and losing them. Always backup before switching versions, just in case.
Hi can you update this please I would like to put some new mods in my game but I can’t because this version is out of date! Please update this thank you very much. ❤
The latest version is available below:
The Sims 4 All in One Automatic
I would like a update for the portable version please thank you very much
New versions are currently only available on The Sims 4 Automatic
hello i just wanna ask [redacted for privacy]? [redacted for privacy]?
No. There are disclaimers against that on my site. I don’t understand why you made the question, though. You can subscribe or you can not subscribe, it’s your choice to support me or not. I do what I can with what I have. My content has been available to non supporters since 2013, but since about a year ago it wasn’t possible anymore.
Hello, I need help. After I copied my local TS4 game files into the TS4 download folder and then tried to Force Check, it says “file too large”. Shall I just continue to start or is there something wrong?
Hum. I heard of that problem with torrents on Tixati before, but I don’t remember if there was a solution to it or if you had to start over without reusing files or maybe using another torrent client, sorry. It’s been a long time since I heard of it 😟
More info: https://forum.tixati.com/support/2639?p=2
It’s a problem with the client itself, try another torrent client and it should (hopefully) work.
Hey, i just installed this version after having to put my laptop in the factory settings again, i did everything the way you say in the text but everytime i start the game it randomly shuts down after a few minutes. Like everything seems to be working, i made a sim but after like 10 minutes, sometimes less, the game turns off. Do you know why that could be?
(also before i restored my laptop to the factory settings, i had ts4 downloaded from you and it worked completely fine – i did have an older version tho, the last extention pack i had was the university one)
That sounds like a video card / driver issue is likely. Try to update the driver and, if necessary, change your graphics settings a bit to see what happens.
hi, I’m trying to uninstall the game from my computer as I can’t afford to subscribe (when I originally got it, it was free) to get the update but it’s not showing up in my control panel at all. How do I remove it from my computer?
Hi! You just delete the folder that has the game and it’s gone (The Sims 4 inside Program Files, if you installed it there). You can also delete your folder The Sims 4 inside Documents\Electronic Arts if you want to delete your saves and mods/CC, otherwise you don’t, since you can just keep them for the future.
Hi, can I have a dumb question please? The Sims 4 All in one Automatic is for download after I subscribe? The end of the subscription means that I will completely lose access to the game? I have the older version The Sims 4 All in one Portable and it’s fine for me, but I need to update. Thank you!
Yes. You subscribe to make a monthly or yearly donation and you have continued access to the latest version for as long as you stay subscribed (and you lose access right away whenever you cancel, or when your “year” is over if you donate yearly). The content is available to people who want to support my work, not the other way around.
I need the donations to keep the website on and to produce content, I work on this most of the time I am not sleeping, seven days a week. It was different (for many years) before the COVID crisis, but after that I had to change. 😟
You can see I even removed ads from my site because they were paying close to nothing, I can’t keep going on otherwise. Thanks for understanding.
