3. Apply The Sims 4 July 2020 Patch 1.64.84.1020
Visual C# Runtime Libraries [Only if you Never Did it on Your Computer]
If you never ran The Sims 4 on your computer and you also never installed those libraries, or if you reinstalled Windows, now it's time to do that, so the game can run without showing you an error message complaining that MSVCP120.DLL file wasn't found or anything similar.
Doing it should be pretty straightforward and you just need to run/install all of those six files.
If you get an error message saying you already have it, or that you have a newer version or anything similar, just ignore it, close it, install the others until you're done.
Update the Game
Open your downloaded folder by right clicking the torrent, then Local Files, Open Folder...
Open 2 Program Files
...
Right Click the Folder The Sims 4
, then Copy...
Open the Folder C:\Program Files
or any other you'd already using instead, if that's the case, so you can see The Sims 4
folder you currently use listed but do NOT open it! Instead, right click on an empty space then Paste to add/replace the necessary files.
If you see the dialog below just choose Yes...
Then enable "Do this for all current items" and click on Yes again...
Click on "Replace the files in the destination" when asked by the prompt below...
Enable "Do this for all current items" and click on Continue...
Wait until all files are copied / overwritten (the number of files will be different than the one presented below).
Once you're finished, navigate to The Sims 4\Game\Bin
and make yourself sure that you have at least the files and folders below (sizes and dates may differ). If you're missing any of those, specially TS4_x64.exe
or OrangeEmu64.dll
your game will NOT work and the lack of any of those files is usually caused by your anti virus, which might have removed them because they're modded. To fix it you'll have to open your anti virus history/quarantine and use the appropriate Allow / Restore action to recover your file(s).
Otherwise, all being good, right click TS4_x64.exe
, then Properties...
Open the Compatibility Tab, Click on Change Settings for All Users...
Enable the checkbox "Run this program as an administrator", then OK and OK again.
Right click again on TS4_x64.exe
, then Copy...
Now go to your desktop and Paste your Shortcut...
You did it!!! Your game is ready to Play! Always remember to Open your Task Manager and be sure that Origin.exe
is NOT running in the background and have fun!

hello! Ive been trying to download this update, as well as the nifty knitting one for several weeks now and when i click on 'continue' on link decoder nothing happens, doesnt take me to any page, anything.
All my antivirus are off so i coukd download it, i dont know whats happening or if im doing smth wrog :ccc pls help!!
Hi! If you have Tixati or uTorrent installed, it should start downloading automatically without showing a new window or anything in your browser. Keep me posted if it works.
Hi! For some reason my game keeps disabling my mods even after I enable them in the game options and restart. I've tried moving my mods folder to my desktop, starting the game and adding only some of my mods back in the new mods folder but the game still disables them. What could I do to fix this? π
Thanks!
Interesting. The game usually disables mods each time you update it, then you go back to the menu, re-enable mods, run the game again, it should work normally.
Now, if it is not the case, perhaps you have some defective mod or CC?
You can try to run the game without mods (or any CC) in the folder, enabling mods in the menu, restarting the computer. Then run the game again (also without mods) and see if the message appears. If the message doesn't appear when you have no mods or CC after doing that the problem is with your CC or Mods. Otherwise try The Sims 4 Validator and post the result from the validator as a reply to this comment π
Thank you for the quick reply π I did what you said and no, the message didn't pop up when I ran my game without mods or cc. But I don't think that my cc or mods are the problem because even if I put just one item of cc in my empty mods folder (e.g a hair) the game will still disable all mods and cc again. I'll post the results of the validator in a separate comment π
Thanks. I don't know how to fix that. π
From the other reply of yours with the validator result I can see you're using a repack from another source, and that may be the cause, if it was modified from the original. Even the exe files are different, I hope you didn't get a virus or anything.

Ah! That's not my repack, sorry. It looks completely different from anything I have ever used before. π
Oh that's strange :/ I made a back up of my sims 4 folder in the directory before I updated it. If I delete the current one and just put in the one I had before (1.63.136.1010) would that fix it?
Please move this entire folder somewhere else in your computer, since you likely have a bunch of versions together mixed and matched from different sources with different compilations.
If you can, use The Sims 4 All in One Automatic [Nifty Knitting]
If you can't, use The Sims 4 Eco Lifestyle All in One Portable 1.63.136.1010 [Including June 10th Patch] then update it with The Sims 4 July 2020 Update Only 1.64.84.1020 [Requires All in One 1.63.136.1010]
Sorry it will take you a while to download everything and do that, but that's the only thing I can think of to (hopefully) solve your problem properly π
my bad just saw your other comment! I'll try that too π
Awesome. Keep me posted. π
I just deleted my the sims 4 folder and put back the previous one which fixed the problem:) Thanks so much for your help hun β€
Awesome!
Hi, i'm having a problem with the download, for some reason the orangeemu64.dll file is in a .zip folder protected by password, and even if i download from the internet, the game won't open, saying the file is corrupted.I've tried downloading again, do you know why?
Hi! Please ignore that file, it should not even be there to start with, I don't remember the password and I can't find it, sorry. I tried a few passwords but none of them work.
This is an update only version and it requires to have a previous All in One working normally, or it won't work, as stated on my warnings.
You need to have 1.63.136.1010 already running (with the orangeemu64.dll file there). It was not included in the update only version because it stayed the same since many updates ago, sorry.
Hi! First of all, thanks for the update! But I have a problem in my game. I don't know if anyone has experienced this too, but it won't let me place anything or change the door in the apartment in Evergreen Harbor that has a balcony. It says that I cannot make changes outside of my property. And the same thing happens in most parts of the 702 Zenview apartment. It has happened since I downloaded Eco livestyle (although I hadn't built in that zenview apartment before, so maybe that bug has always been there for me), and I thought that it happened to everyone and would get fixed in one of the updates, but it hasn't. I'm not sure what I should do about it, or if I'm the only one having this particular issue, I'd really appreciate some advise
Hi. As far as I remember The Sims 4 is quite hard for you to change things outside of your apartment and even some things inside your apartment can't be easily changed without cheats. There are cheats for some things, but I don't remember being able to change the entire building, for example, like we could on Sims 3, but I did not play enough. Please do some investigating and let us know, we can always learn these tricks π
Well, the thing is that in those specific apartments I can't change areas inside of them, the balcony is supposed to be a part of the apartment, and I've seen other people online using them, but it doesn't let me do it. Also, if i press "bulldoze lot" the floor dissapears and there's nothing I can do anymore. I only happens in those two apartments, I think. In terms of cheats, I don't think there's one that would allow you to change the whole apartment build, sadly (the bb.enablefreebuild doesn't work in apartments), but I think there are mods for that, if anyone's interested. Anyway, if I don't find a way to solve it, I guess I'll download the whole game again and see if that works, even though that takes about 10 hours to do. Thanks anyway!
Sorry to hear. Do you have any mod or CC? Try to temporarily rename your folder The Sims 4 inside Documents/Electronic Arts and see what happens when you try to do the same.
I finally found out what was happening: in the 702 zenview apartment, the problem seems to be the stairs of the apartment next door, if you delete it or move it somewhere else, the apartment 702 works just fine. The one on Evergreen Harbor, sadly, can't be fixed, they made the balcony untouchable in the finished version, although we could see youtubers building in it in the alpha version, but there were some major glitches and they finally decided to leave it out of the apartment in buildmode, or so I've read online. So that's the explanation, just in case anyone's having the same problem
Thanks for the tips! π€©
I guess you need some modding to get it going then.
This one you're commenting on is free already, the current version 1.65 with Nifty Knitting is exclusive to Premium Subscribers π₯° for 2 weeks, then available on uTip (1β¬). After another 2 weeks it will be free as well.
The version you commented here is free since a few days ago. π
Hi, my game isnt working. My game is saying that the contents of my user data director are from a newer version of the sims 4 and cannot be loaded. It's telling me to update my game via orgin to play and gives me an error code?
Current version of the game is 1.65.70 (on Origin). If you're using the version of this post it's outdated.
The current version is available at The Sims 4 All in One Automatic [Nifty Knitting]
Itβs been doing that before this patch came out . I downloaded the eco lifestyle all in one and it was fine until about a week or two ago. I tried to delete the game and download it back , tried to download this update . Should I delete origin? Iβm not subscribed to yandex for automatic
No need.
Well, The Sims 4 Automatic is current, so that's the ideal solution for your problem.
What you can try to do (please keep a backup of your saves and mods/cc, just in case) is to rename the file "\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4\GameVersion.txt" to GameVersionDisabled.txt or something like that each time you get the error (which will happen whenever you play with a new version, then go back to an older one).
Hey!
So i'm not sure if this is the right place to ask these questions but how do you play online? I saw it says that at the bottom of the download but i'm a bit slow with technology. Is there a tutorial on how to play online?
To access the on line gallery you need to run Origin's version (Directly from EA). Modded versions can't log in to their servers.
You can have two versions of the game on the same computer. One plain (Origin) to access the gallery, another(s) modded to play later on off line.
Can you unsubscribe me from emails
Done.
Free to download, starting now! Enjoy! π
Free to download, starting now! Enjoy! π
Once Nifty Knitting is released both 1.64.84 and 1.65.70 will be free. Then Nifty Knitting will be a Sims 4 All in One Automatic Exclusive.
Nifty Knitting will be available by uTip Donations (1 euro as usual) after two weeks.
That way I thank to my wonderful Premium Subscribers π₯° better by giving them exclusive access to the best sooner than everybody else. π
The current version is a Sims 4 All in One Automatic [1.65.70.1020] Exclusive.
So does this mean that Nifty Knitting won't be free for people who don't have the automatic version? π₯Ί
Not for the first month. First 2 weeks, Automatic Exclusive. Another two weeks, uTip Donations (just 1 Euro). After those four weeks, we'll see, probably when there's a new version of the game the previous one becomes free and so on. I had to do is because I am really in need for the support, sorry (ad revenue plummeted because of COVID). π
Hi. Yes, the latest patch is only available after a small 1 euro donation or to people who are Premium Subscribers
The version before the last and all the others before are free to download.
Oh, and there's a new one as of a few minutes ago, only available at The Sims 4 All in One Automatic [1.65.70.1020] right now.
the torrent download never start, I've tried several times
Hi. It's a relatively new torrent, so it takes a while, sorry.
You can play with the version before the last. The latest versions will be for supporters only from now on. First Premium Subscriber π₯° with The Sims 4 All in One Automatic. A week or two later, a uTip donation only version for Update Only & All in One. Then, once a new release comes up, the one right before it becomes free. I really need the support right now, plus I feel obliged to give as much as I can to my beloved supporters. Otherwise I would have had to stop this, sorry.
Would it help if I accepted Mercado Pago or PagSeguro?
Don't have any of those, nor do I speak/understand the language its in.
I thought you were in RIO (Brazil), sorry.
