Ideas
I can't play with the packs I paid for. When I open up the game, I don't see any of them, and when I go to look at the marketplace, it says that all of them are deactivated. I can't seem to find out why this is happening, and I have made sure that I have them downloaded. I have tried to repair it as well. I'm just lost on what I can do to fix this.
I have tried troubleshooting every way I know how, but it still won't load the new packs I bought:
- reloading the game
- repairing the game in the EA app launcher (with the game closed)
- uninstalling the entire game then reinstalling the game
- restarting my computer and doing all the steps above
It won't register the new packs I bought after so much troubleshooting, and I genuinely don't know how to fix this. It keeps telling me the "installation complete" for all the packs... But then does not load the new ones I bought (the fairy and royalty expansion packs). I don't use mods or cc, I play almost exclusively with just the base game and the packs.
Any advice or other methods would be gladly appreciated :)

I deleted the "Options.ini" and "UserSetting.ini" in the EA folder (Documents > Electronic Arts > Sims 4 folder) before loading up the game, and it seemed to fix my issue. I will link the posts I found that shared this information. Bluebellflora and Tremayne4260 recommended this, and it worked for me. Hopefully, it also works for you.
