Game will not start after installing exspansions and stuff packs

Hi there, I'm having some terrible issues with my Sims 3 Installations!

I am installing the games purely by discs which I bought and only installed Origin as it offered it.

Owned Discs:

Sims 3 Base

Ambitions

World Adventures

Fast Lane

Town Life

Outdoor stuffs

Design & High Tech stuffs

I installed the base game first and tested it and it worked great!

So I started to install the others in order and updated the Launcher when it asked each time

Now when I try to play the game it does not work at all. The Launcher opens fine when I open the last expansion .exe which was put onto my desktop, I press play on the launcher and nothing happened, nor does the bypass of game/bin/TS3W - nothing happens at all, its only after installing the expansions.

I've tried to see if updates are needed but it says Im fully up to date, so now I am clueless. Ive even tried changing the compatability on the properties. 

I used Windows 10, its a brand new laptop
