Expansions not showing up in the launcher

So my origins account shows that I have all the expansions installed except for "into the future". However when I launched the game I noticed that I didnt have the option to play in bridgeport. I went back to the launcher and I noticed that late night and ambitions dont show up under the installed packs section. How can I fix this? I already uninstalled and reinstalled late night and its still not showing up. Thank you all in advance.
  • Same problem here. Only some of the packs showing up in the launcher but all of them show as installed in Origin. Tried everything I could come up with and even contacted EA support. They made me do clean boot and try resetting the Hosts file, but didn't work. After that they just informed me that the game team has removed those packs from my account. Reason unknow.
    So that's it then. Have to buy them again. Has been over 10 years since the release and the expansion packs still cost 40€, same as the Sims 4 packs. Unbelievable...

    @Emmily3112, you might be better off posting this thread for new members as it's more active than this one...?
