@ParadoxKaitOffic Sims 3 dlc needs to download to the launcher. Does the game launcher open when you start the game? Once you have downloaded to the launcher you need to install the dlc from the game download tab in the launcher. You need to open the Sims 3 store - find your pack and click download. The default download location is the Sims launcher. which is set when you installed the game. In settings chosse app by file type should be set to Sims3launcher. This causes sim3pack files to be downloaded to the sims 3 download folder in the user documents folder. If you trying to install cc or mods that is different for the Sims 3 store. First you have to create a mods folder and then you need to create a file in the folder. This file is available in many places to manually be created or the copy and paste. hth
@roberta591 The launcher does open, however I haven't seen anything that allows me to download them to the launcher. They don't even show up in the launcher for me to download them. After deleting and reinstalling the game, the DLCs a greyed-out button once again and says downloading, but they aren't downloading.
@ParadoxKaitOffic When you go to the Sim3 store and if you own an item and click download the item will download if the Windows setting is correct. sims3packs will automatically download to the to the launcher download tab IF the setting is correct. This is a Windows settingas detailed above. cc and mods are nbot sims3pack and have to be manually handled. Please check the setting in choose default apps by file type - if this setting is wrong the sims3pack will not download.
