World wont load after downloading cc on windows computer

Hi, 

i used to play on mac, but since the new update i cant play with cc. - i bought a new computer with windows, and the game works totally fine UNTIL .. i download cc from thesims3.com, then the worlds wont load.

i have already tried converting sims3files to package files, and the mods folder, resource.cfg, package aaall of that.. and nothing works. I am losing my mind over this, can someone please help? 

I just want to play with cc, via the launcher as i used to, and thought when i got a windows computer i would all be solved, but i guess not :(

    53e124d6e91f325f​  Sims 3 Store content can't be converted to .package files without some additional steps that can also break some content.  So I'd suggest sticking with Sims3Packs, at least for Store items: official EA content, as opposed to third-party uploads on the Exchange.  Are you working with Store stuff or Exchange stuff or both?

    Please also remove or rename the Sims 3 folder in Documents > Electronic Arts, open the launcher to create a new folder, download one world and nothing else, install it, and see whether it loads.  If it doesn't, let me know what world it is and what you see, for example the world isn't there at all or it is but you can't load a new save there.
