How To Install Store Items
My old step-by-step guide on how to install your store items without duplicate files with all the links has disappeared! It was here: http://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/807788/reinstall-store...

On the backup saves. ALWAYS use "save as" and you won't get backups. Just give your game a new name when you save like SV1, SV2, and SV3. That way you'll have backups without having "backups"
It keeps corruptions from happening so often because you are always creating a "new" save, rather than saving "over" the old one.
I delete all my old saves at the end of a play session so I'm ready for the next.
That is a really smart way to handle that! Thanks @ciane
I tried swapping the ccmerged file out but that was not a magic fix, sadly. I went into buy mode with shop mode enabled and it is showing 10 different sets as available for me to purchase :neutral: Who knows what I managed to do. Yesterday I had the error 16 where I literally ran out of room on my hard drive to save my game :tired_face: Maybe that did something. I'll just do a clean install one more once. But not tonight :smirk: side note: my Sims and all the EPs and SPs takes up 60 gigs... does that seem normal?!
edited- after everything I've done today, I've trimmed it down to 60 gigs... who knows what was bloating those files up. 10 gigs was saves. Not sure what the rest was.
