@DinoJr - I always love seeing pics of the gifts in use and hearing what is happening with them in game. I also have enjoyed so much everything you added to this gift exchange through your insights and perspective. You certainly helped to make this gift exchange a thoroughly enjoyable experience.
@ADWilson, @MiaSkywalker, and @KhemKat19 - I sent a reply to the PM. I think a "reset" to a new vanilla sims 3 folder with pertinent files - dccache .ebc's, installedWorlds, dcbackup ccmerged (and maybe others later), contentpatch.package, and (maybe later, library files) - copied over as well as the "reset" to Internet Explorer with the "delete personal settings" is the next course to try. The export files can be double clicked to send them to the launcher to try again. I offered step-by-step and alternate options. If all these fail, THEN... I suggest reinstalling store stuff per the link in my siggie and moving all files in the dcbackup and download folders out as you install. You can move them into folders named according to the set they go with, IE. install the bakery, then go to the dcbackup folder and move all the 0x....package files from that folder to a new sub-folder you name Bakery within a new folder you call s3dc or something. (I suggest this because you can't later tell one set's files from another, but really, I think this is overkill and just makes me feel organized.) You can put the download file you just installed in that same folder so it'll be super obvious later. (Some store files have names that are different from from what you see in the store.)
