Hey there, 

 

I was experiencing simillar issue with SimCity for 2 days. 

 

Behaviour: I installed Origin along with Simcity after trying to turn it on, there was displayed Simcity logo but it didnt run as well, it gets back to the origin. So I was not able to see any error or anything because even launcher wasnt turned on as well. 

 

Resolution: Issue was caused by Windows Defender feature called - "Controlled folder access". 

 

Check if you have turned it on, if yes simply turn it off just by following these steps: 

 

1. Open the  Windows Security, and click/tap on the Virus & threat protection icon.

2. Click/tap on the Manage ransomware protection link under the Ransomware protection section.

3. Turn On or Off (default) Controlled folder access for what you want.

4. Click/tap on Yes when prompted by UAC to approve.

5. Simply close the Windows Security and let's play!

 

Hope it helps. Standard smile
