Worlds downloaded but not showing up in game or folder

Hi!

I purchased generations and world adventures this morning from CD Keys, and downloaded them both. However, the worlds from world adventures aren't showing up in my Sims 3 folder or in the game despite the other content being there, as well as adventureland. I also have late night, and Bridgeport shows up in game even though it's not in my folder either.

I've reinstalled the game multiple times and it hasn't worked so I'm not sure what to do now. 

Please could anyone help?

  • @GraceHolly04  The three World Adventures worlds are not homeworlds; you'd need to send your sims traveling to one of them in order to load it.  And no worlds that come with expansions show up in your user folder.  The InstalledWorlds folder is only for worlds you install through the launcher, i.e. Store or custom worlds you download separately.
