When you're installing from disc, you should be able to choose the destination for the game files just as you would for a digital install. A word of warning though: Origin has recently been declining to recognize packs that were installed via disc and aren't registered to the player's account. I doubt it happens all the time, but I have seen a couple of reports recently.
Sims 1 does run in Windows 10, although I'm sure there's some kind of compatibility mode involved. Sims 2 is supposed to run fine in Windows 10, with compatibility mode set to Vista service pack 2 or 3. But there are some reports that Nvidia 10-series cards can't run the game, either the disc version or the Ultimate Collection from Origin. I'm not sure why. I doubt it's the cards' architecture, which is shared with the 9-series. It could just be due to poorly done edits of the .sgr files, or their TS2 equivalent, since many players use Graphics Rules Maker instead of doing the edits manually. I can't test, since I own neither TS2 nor a 10-series card. Hopefully someone in the TS2 section here can help. But if not, and you're up for experimenting a bit, let me know, and I'll try to find out what else you can do.
Where should I direct the ones that I download from the disk ? Whats the exact folder should I direct them to ?
