The package files ? You don't need to open them. Just copy into your mods folder. If they are rar files you need to donload 7zip or winrar.
I get windows can't open the file and to use web service or chose A program to open it with.

Make sure you are following the steps provided to install said custom content to ensure it functions properly. We can't really help much more than that, possibly the creator of the mod themselves might be of more assistance. The mod itself might not be compatible with the game anymore if it's come out before the latest patch. 🙂
i have the same problem. i cant get custom content into my Sims 4 game.
i have tried everything. even re-installed the game.

If you're copy / pasting them, then don't do that. Stop. Here's how it'll show up in the game:
.package files:
FOR .zip FILES:
Hope this helped!
Why can't you copy paste? I preffer to use this method so I can keep an extra file in my downloads section just in case. If the game really does delete your CC then that's all the more reason to want to keep an extra copy in my downloads file.
FOr me the RAR files just looked the same as package files, do they actually need to be unzipped?
Edit: Downloaded 7zip and tried to unzip the RAR file, it gave me no option to do so.
If you have the extension .rar you need to unzip them, if they have .package you don't
My cc is in my mods folder like it should be, but when I open the game, it doesn't show up. I have the button clicked to allow cc in-game and I have tried multiple times to download different things and reinstall my game but nothing works. What do I do?
Can you please help me to? I can't download cc either, when I try to it downloads a minecraft or photoshop file with the name of the cc I downloaded. What is the problem? Please help me
Seems the file type has been used by a different program. Have you tried just placing them in the mods folder?
You can change the default program:

But it should work the same with the other programs attached.
I put the mods into the mods folder, but when i open the game it doesnt say anything. And there are no mods in the game or the little square that they appear in? Help please?
In that case you are not putting them in the folder the game uses.
Here is an easy way to find out which folder your game is using: https://sims4.crinrict.com/en/2018/07/how-to-find-your-user-folder/
