Forum Discussion
@Nerushkess The options are the same as when you had Origin. Origin didn't allow you to uninstall packs separately either.
So official: Reinstall the game and only install what you want
Unsupported: Delete the folders of the packs you no longer want. Make sure to delete both folder in delta as well as the main folder.

thanks for the quick response 🙂
does that mean im gonna lose all my saved games?
- @Nerushkess No. Only problem is that if you used things in a save from a pack that you wish to uninstall. That can lead to save issues.
Backup your user folder if you decide to go the uninstall path (backups are good anyways),
You can find more info: https://sims4.crinrict.com/eng/2015/08/uninstall-single-packs/
The article is for Origin but should work for EA app accordingly.
and for backups: https://sims4.crinrict.com/eng/2014/09/backups/thank you!!! 🙂
Is there a way to get the expansion pack back after you delete it from the main folder and delta?
@bellergamer2 Yes, open the EA App game library, click Sims 4, then Manage > Manage add-ons, and find the pack on the list. Click the Download button under the pack name. When it's done, choose Manage > Repair to restore the folder inside Delta.
