The sims 3 launcher keeps resetting my downloads from the exchange.

Hi,

I have only got the Nraas mods installed, which are screenshots in the description, and I have run as administrator twice, then it resets when I open it. All my worlds are gone and not loaded. I wish this game wasn't so old like me xD...

I have tried deleting my EA app cache file and running it as an administrator. I feel its the launcher but then i get an error when a load a game which i think its because it isn't downloaded.

Please tell me what I need to do. 

Kind regards

Hannah

    MelvinTheReaper​  Please test in a clean user folder.  I'm not saying you need to delete everything you've already installed; this is about putting it aside for the sake of testing.  Remove or rename the Sims 3 folder in Documents > Electronic Arts, and the game will create a new one when you open the launcher.  Install a few Exchange items, not a whole pile at once; you can reuse the files in Downloads inside the old Sims 3 folder.  Start the game, confirm that the downloads are there, quit, restart your computer, and look again, after however long it usually takes for your content to disappear.
