Can I transfer Sims 3 and all expansions to a new computer without Origin?
I have two computers: my laptop and my desktop. I have the Sims 3 base game on both, however all of my expansions have been bought through Origin on my laptop. My desktop cannot connect to the internet due to an issue with its network adapter, so I don't have Origin downloaded onto it. My laptop is seven years old and starting to get incredibly hot whenever I run Chrome, so it's near impossible for me to play Sims 3 without fear of it burning up. I'm wondering if there's a way I can transfer all of my expansions to my desktop without needing Origin, like a way to get the installation files independently.
Hi @Shakulaku,
You could actually move The Sims 3 files to the new computer, but you need Origin and an internet connection to finish the installation and activation of the game in the new computer. So even if you moved the game files, you would need an internet connection to make it work.
Sorry I have no better news for you ☹️
Good luck,
Mai
