Sims 4 Laundry Day Stuff Pack download stuck at 0B/Sec

Today, I finally decided to buy and download the Laundry Day stuff pack. However, after getting to 3% it says 0B/Sec and 0 hours 0 minutes 0 seconds. I already cleared the Origin cache, which usually helps, but it didn't work this time. I also tried running as administrator. I've heard of safe mode downloading, but it doesn't appear to be an option anymore? Please help.

  • I just bought Sims 4 Parenthood and I'm having the same issue. Safe mode downloading is no longer an origin setting and I have no way of fixing this. I'm even talking to someone from the support team but I' m having no luck with that ;/

    Restart your computer and try once more. Choose "Restart" option)

    If this doesn't help, run Origin as Administrator. Right-click on the Origin icon and select Run as Administrator

    Okay, I have a strange update. Restarting and running as administrator again didn't help. I figured I would forget it for a while and just work on a build I've been doing. Somehow letting the game run while downloading helped? Weird, right? 🤨

    I love such cases when the game fixes itself. Maybe when you wanted to download this too many users did the same and the server choked. I am very happy that you have got this pack 🙂
