Yes you can uninstall the game and reinstall them whenever you choose. Once the game is linked to your account it generally is not removed and you can reinstall at a later date.

      @RandomEliax Yes you can, just log in to Origin client using the account you purchased the game with or redeemed the games product code under and the game should show under 'My Games'. From there you should be able to download it with out any charge!

      Let us know if you have any further questions!

        I really need help, so I uninstalled my sims 3 expansions and when I tried to install them back the only one I was able to get back was the original Sims 3. I can't get my expansions back!   ):
