EA app is automatically downloading Legacy Edition

Hello,

every time I get new DLC/Pack the Legacy edition starts downloading automatically right after the download and installation of the DLC/Pack. I use PC, Windows 11, and the problem started with EA app, I did not have this issue with Origin or Steam. 

Why is it doing that?

How do I stop it?

Just to add that cache have been cleared many times, the EA app itself have been reinstalled many times since it came out, and Sims 4 have been reinstalled once since the switch to EA app, but this problem remains. 

If anyone can help with this or have some insight, it would be appreciated

    It sounds like the live support team will need to review your account and be sure you have the correct version of the base game added to your account- this isn't something we can check for you over the forums as we don't have access to your account information, but live support can investigate into this a bit further with you.

    Please reach out to live support from the help site here- I'd also recommend you attach this AHQ conversation when you reach out there so the team has further details to reference.

    From the site here under Game Support, you'll select EA app as the product, then I need help loading my game. From there, you'll see the available contact options for live support.
