Do you have to unzip CC file for it to work?

I have recently downloaded a lot of sets for my Sims4 however all my cc for the sims are showing up but my sets doesn't even show up so I can select it, the only set cc that shows up is a single file, however when I clicked on the files there isn't an option for me to unzip the files. Can anyone help me with this problem?😢

    Hi @yangyng03

    it all depends on the extension the files has.

    if it's a .zip, .rar or .7z file, you need to unzip it. Windows can only unzip zip files. For rar and 7z you'll need an extra program like winRar or 7zip.

    If they are .package files, they go in your mods folder without unzipping.

    Hi, I had this same problem and I have unzipped all the CC that needs unzipping. However, when I try to play Sims 4, it won't open, when it did before I unzipped it. Do you know why this could be happening?

    Hi @MayaPhillips2003,

    Could you try the steps in Crins post just above yours? That should do the trick for you. If not, please create a new current thread on this and we'll see if we can help figure this out with you. 🙂 I'll close this thread off here in the meantime. Thanks,
