Forum Discussion
@Derrickrocks559 Where did you get these files? If they're downloaded from Origin, then Origin should already know what to do with them.
I got these files sent to me from my last computer, I sent them to my knew one, but the game wont recognize them
@Derrickrocks559 Origin needs to download the packs, or at least it needs to think it downloaded the packs. The easiest way is to just download all your packs directly from Origin. If this takes too much data however, let me know—there's a workaround of sorts, although it doesn't always work as intended.
how do I get origin to think it gave me the packs?
I checked and I have all of these (EP01-SP17) flies located inside The Sims 4 file.

1. Move The Sims4 folder found in Documenty \ Electronic Arts \ The Sims 4 to the desktop - if you have it there.
2. Uninstall Origin and Steam versions with all add-ons (so that nothing of Sims 4 remains on the computer) Manually delete the Origin Games folder
3. Reinstall the Steam version with all its content, then launch it on Steam.
4. Your Origin add-ons will be missing, so when the game starts, close it and start Origin (Steam is still running).
5. Go to the Steam game tile in Origin (if you have one, otherwise just use The Sims 4 old on Origin (but don't install it!) Just go to the page where you have the add-ons list and start installing the add-ons you have on Origin.
6. Then start the game via Steam.
