I have windows 7. The launcher starts and will play the sims 3 original if I don't do any updates or install the expansions. If I manually update it and the expansions, which are a mix of downloaded and on disc, it comes up with an error when I hit the play button that says the game is not updated. It won't automatically update so I've manually updated all of them. The same error comes up. And now it won't let me uninstall them so i can try it all again.
I have version 2 of the game
Try a clean reinstall following the instructions here: http://simswiki.info/wiki.php?title=Game_Help:TS3_Uninstall and here: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-3/Help-Guide-All-in-one-fix-except-hardware-issues-PC-only/m-p/734448#M36281 where it says Delete game installers
Manually delete everything if above method does not work: https://help.ea.com/article/manually-uninstalling-the-sims-3
Make sure everything Sims is gone from your computer before reinstalling
If the game still shows in your Uninstaller Menu afterwards, you can use CCleaner to get rid of those.
