Found a solution: go into the setup folder of the ISO and run setup.exe (If you tried to run start.exe beforehand, make sure to kill the process in task manager as it will still run in the background, it just won't open anything)

The Start.exe does literally nothing. Tried all of the compatibility modes, and nothing. It shows up in task manager, but nothing actually happens. So I can't even install the damn thing, let alone anything else after.

Jeb2020-07-12-1 point
I have downloaded it but where should I extract it? is it in the download section? or it is going to be in the ISO?? Then where should I start? is it going to be the the start.exe or setup.exe in order to start the installation?? I clicked both it still won't work, can you pls give me step by step procedure for this since im not used to ISO.
Jeb2020-07-121 point

I dunno why Deo is getting downvoted. Its not rocket science. Don't install ANY older game to Program Files. Make a C:Games or D: Games directory and install there. No need to faff about with disabling UAC which is a terrible thing to do from a security standpoint.
Also, compatibility mode isn't enough to get this game to work. There are multiple howtos and patches to get this game to work on modern hardware. Just googles 'Sims 1 windows 10', the first link will probably be to a howto at SimsVIP, which is adequate.
Cloudy2020-05-040 point
Can't get it to launch even after changing the compatibility mode and running as administrator. Any advice?

I have an issue where moving in a family just puts me in buy mode and no sims are on the lot, any fix for this?
-=DEO=-2020-04-16-4 points
Who the hell is installing games to the ProgramFiles directory? It's 2020, in the '90s it was ok, after 2000 not really. Win 98 was so unstable in the past..I needed to use old NortonGhost (2floppy disc) to made backup from a newly installed windows with media players, drivers and games. BTW after that the backup reinstall just took 5-10 mins with my games register files (games installed on D:).

Thank you very very much for this!! I will update the original Sims forum in here that they should download this edition instead to enjoy the DLC add-ons.
Thank you community at Abandonware!

Hestia2019-07-096 points
This is a terrible download. Only one neighborhood exists and the original households (Goths / Newbies) are gone! Avoid at all costs. Fake complete collection download.
sgwedge2019-06-251 point
if this download works then ill be buzzin la

I don't get it. I installed but I can't find a single EXE to launch it..

Can't install from disks without disk readers, downloading to use the valid cd-key from my copy.

Don't download, it's a custom shitty and extremely slow installer with missing stuff. It's not the real complete collection. There's only one neighborhood and for instance the tutorial is not included.
Dude2019-02-062 points
Where is the key??
Quil the Great2019-01-171 point
Had some minor issues with the download, but apart from that, this game works perfectly! There is, however, only one neighborhood but that doesn't make a huge different. The installer certainly takes a while, but once up and running on my Windows XP virtual machine it went perfectly. An excellent game overall!
tjonmaxx2019-01-120 point
Hello, this game will not work on win 7+.
to resolve this. once installed go to crack folder
in cd and replace 'sims' in c drive. game will now run and run without disk.
mrpenguinb2019-01-071 point
For problems with the game's performance, use a DirectDraw wrapper.
The PCGamingWiki article tells you how to install the DirectDraw wrapper: https://pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/The_Sims#Low_frame-rate_and_graphical_glitches
With the wrapper, alt+tab works perfectly fine with no graphical glitches.
underskyzx2019-01-060 point
Completely disable UAC or install in c:userspublic since it's considered 'public' no permissions issues with saves

kippie2018-08-120 point
It's taking a lonnnng time to install it's been maybe a few hours now (I already downloaded the file I'm having trouble INSTALLING it) and I'm concerned about others saying that there's save issues sooo how do I prevent save issues and am I having a problem installing or is this normal?
Katie2018-07-160 point
Will this work on a mac?
MysteriousCupcake2018-07-101 point
The audio only works on a computer they don't make anymore. But, if you get the full edition with all of the packs the audio will work
Battlefield1fan2018-07-03-10 points
This game is cool but when you play it now it now compared to all the other ones it looks and feels bad
Deeman2018-06-169 points
The save error occurs because the game was designed during the windows 9x days which didn't have user level protections. This is why you have to run as admin if the game is installed to the default location. (C:Program FilesEAGames) To fix this so Admin is not needed, you just install to a directory that doesn't require admin such as your Documents folder.
anonymous2018-06-130 point
Always a save error regardless of what I want to save. What's wrong?
JJ2018-05-268 points
Solved my problem. If anyone else has problems with saving, just start the game by running it as an administrator.
JJ2018-05-260 point
The game runs, but wont save. Any idea's?

To bookmarksThe Sims is a strategic life simulation video game developed by Maxis and published by Electronic Arts in 2000. It is a simulation of the daily activities of one or more virtual people ('Sims') in a suburban household near a fictional city. Players control customizable Sims as they pursue career and relationship goals. Players can also use their Sims' income to renovate their living space, purchase home furnishings, or clothing for their household. Players can also choose to pursue a social and successful life.
The game's development was led by Will Wright and the game was a follow-up to Wright's earlier SimCity series; Wright was inspired to create the game by Christopher Alexander's 1977 book A Pattern Language, and Scott McCloud's 1993 book Understanding Comics later played a role in the game's design. Seven expansion packs were released from 2000 to 2003, each of which added new items, characters, skins, and features.
Upon release, it garnered generally positive reviews and was described by Wright as being successful in attracting casual and female gamers. It also won several awards, and placed 31st on Time's The 50 Best Video Games of All Time list. Several sequels were released - The Sims 2 in 2004, The Sims 3 in 2009, and The Sims 4 in 2014.
Gameplay
The structure of the game is actually an agent-based artificial life program. The presentation of the game's artificial intelligence is advanced, and the Sims will respond to outside conditions independently, though often the player's intervention is necessary to keep the Sims on the right track. The Sims technically has unlimited replay value, in that there is no way to truly win the game, and the player can play over and over indefinitely. It has been described as more like a toy than a game.
