Reinstalling Sims 3 and/or expansion pack without disk

Basically, i had The Sims 3, Late night, Generations and Into The Future, all installed via disk. I ended up having to clean boot my pc due to viruses. I only deleted files in the C: drive, not the D:. In the D: drive i had the Electronic Arts folder which contained The Sims 3, Generations etc. I tried opening up Late Night, but it said i had to reinstall the base game. So i did, same problem. My question is, can i reinstall Late Night, as i can not find the disk for some reason. I have managed to install Into The Future as i found that disk.

    What I would first recommend is that you do a manual uninstall for your games before installing them. To find instructions for each game, type into the google search bar: manually uninstalling the sims 3 x

    After you have done that, you can download your games from Origin. Make sure you have Origin downloaded and your games are registered. Open Origin, go to your My Games and download the games. 

    I hope that helps!

    The problem is, only the sims 3 is in my games. Not the expansion packs.
