CC still showing in my Sims 3 Game

So, I have removed all of my cc from my mods folder, downloads folder and the Sims 3 launcher, but it is still appearing in my game. 

Are there any additional steps I need to do?


I have deleted the cache files but they still appear in my game. I repaired and uninstalled my game and they are still there. 😕

  • @nessatay2223  Did you also delete the .dbc files in DCCache?  I thought you had, but I realized I read that wrong in your original post.  The files that end in .ebc are bundled Store content, so don't touch those.

  • @nessatay2223  Try deleting everything from DCBackup except for ccmerged.package, which, despite its name, is required for premium Store content to work.  The other files are backup copies of installed Store and custom content and are unnecessary unless you want your cc to attach to Exchange uploads.

    If that doesn't help, remove the Library and SavedSims folders.  Don't delete these folders outright; simply test with them gone.

    @puzzlezaddict  So, I cleared everything out from DCBackup except the ccmerged.package and took out the library folder but I don't have a savedsims folder. 

    The cc is still showing up unfortunately....

    @nessatay2223  Great, glad to hear it.  You can restore your Library files if you want; there's nothing useful about the files in DCBackup (other than ccmerged).
