Issues with Managing Add-Ons in Sims 4
I bought Sims 4 FOREVER ago, through Origin, including over 20 different expansions packs. I tried to reinstall about a week ago and found that Origin is no longer a thing and that it was replaced by the EA App. I have a PC and have Windows 11.
So I downloaded the EA App and was able to install the Sims 4 base game. However, all my add-ons are not downloading. Two (Up All Night and Life of the Party Digital Content) have, the others have not. I have cleared my cache, and repaired the game, and still nothing.
In the EA App, when I click on "manage" and then "manage add-on's" it shows all my packs, but below each one it says to manage on Steam. I have never had a steam account, I created one today to see if I could link the EA App and Steam, but have had zero luck. Someone help me!
@Katylou43768 You'll need to uninstall the Origin version of Sims 4 and install the Steam version. Download all the packs you own through Steam. Then, if you own any packs through Origin, sign into Origin and download those packs as well. They should go into the Sims 4 Steam install.
