  • @LaureDorion  Sims 4 packs are treated as DLC and therefore not eligible for refunds under EA policy.  Support will sometimes make an exception when someone's computer can't run the pack at all, but it sounds like that's not the case here.

    You can certainly uninstall Seasons if you want, either by deleting the EP05 folder in the game's install files or by uninstalling the entire game and reinstalling without Seasons.  However, Origin will keep trying to download any missing pack, even if you have auto game updates disabled.  For me at least, it tries to download a pack that's not installed after any game update or after I clear Origin's cache.

    So the easier solution might be to just disable Seasons in Origin:

    This tells Origin not to load the pack and can be reversed in a couple seconds if you ever change your mind.
