Basically that. I want to uninstall The Sims 4 from my PC. But the game is not listed in "Add or Remove Program" so I can't uninstall it.

    If this hasn't been solved yet, you can manually delete every single folder.

    To find where it is, go to the game on ea play -> view properties -> show folder location.

    You won't be able to delete it all at once. Just start deleting the game's folders one at a time until you can't anymore.

    If any folder gives you trouble. delete the contents inside that folder, and then you can delete the parent folder.

    This was the only way that I found to delete this Sims 4

    Of course it doesn't work. As I said, the game doesn't appear in Control Panel

    Thank you for the update!

    Open the EA App, go to your game library, right-click on The Sims 4, and select "Uninstall."

    If the above steps don't work, you can manually uninstall The Sims 4 through the Control Panel. Here’s how:

    Press Windows + R, type appwiz.cpl, and hit Enter.

    Look for The Sims 4 in the list, select it, and click "Uninstall."

    Let me know how it goes. Thank you!

    Hi Nals,

    I installed via EA App. If I try to uninstall the game through the app, it directs me to Control Panel and I need to uninstall it manually.

    Hello, and thanks for reaching out! I'm Nals, and I'll be happy to assist you today. My response times may vary, but I generally reply between 10:00 AM and 8:00 PM IST (UTC +5:30) every day of the week.

    How did you install The Sims 4 via Origin, Steam, physical disc, or another platform?

    If The Sims 4 doesn't appear in "Add or Remove Programs," try uninstalling it through the platform where you installed it (e.g., Origin or Steam).

    If you have any additional questions or need further assistance, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I'm here to help!

    Best regards,

    Nals
