That would be those

C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\<name of the EP>\Game\Bin\TS3EPxx.exe 

C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\<name of the SP>\Game\Bin\TS3SPxx.exe 

x stands for the number of the EP. World adventures would be TS3EP01.exe for example

      There's only one exe file looking like that in the folder of the EP.
