If you run into any issues trying to play any of these, it’s most likely not a Windows 10 specific issue.Īs usual, your results may vary, but like Sims 2, these games actually run faster and smoother for me on Windows 10 than they did on Windows 8.1.

So when playing The Sims, you have two choices: Play in the small windowed mode, or play full screen and make sure you never switch tabs. If you ALT + TAB to view a different window and then return to the game, it will completely freeze a few moments later and you’ll have to force close it. Your other option is to play full screen, which also has a major con – when you get in game, you have to stay there. Modding is also not a perfect solution as it causes some wonky issues with the UI. Sadly, without modding, the screen size is not adjustable and what you see is what you get.
Once you exit, the black box will be gone and you’ll see your game. Don’t click any of them, exit the screen instead. This will bring up a new window with several options. The way to remove this box is to press CTRL + ALT + DEL on your keyboard. This box covers anything and everything on the screen, so even if you put a window over The Sims window, the black box will cover everything. When you initially run the game in windowed mode, you’re graced with this wonderful black box that covers the game screen. One of the most common issues with The Sims, no matter what version you have, is the black box glitch.
