Unable to install Sims 3 packs through Origin
Recently, there have been a number of reports of players not being able to download Sims 3 packs through Origin. They press the Download button for a pack they own, but nothing happens. A few have reported that clearing Origin's cache or uninstalling Origin ("the hard way") have solved the issue, but for others, these steps don't help.
I'm combining these posts into one thread so that it's easier to gather and compare information. If you're experiencing this issue, please press the Me Too button and report which packs you can't download.
This thread is for Windows only. If you're playing on a mac, please see this post for a workaround:
The downloading issue has been fixed by the latest Origin patch, released this week. You can read the patch notes here.
If anyone updates Origin and still can't download a missing pack, please clear Origin's cache and try again.

Tagging @XxTheHolyBiblexX @aridridge @KNKV10 and @frozenorangejuic for the update. I'm sorry it took this long, but hopefully, you're all able to download your packs now.
