Hello @harriet_jade

 

Do you know the file location where your game is located

 

Go to Program Files (or program files x86) > Origin Games (if its there) then if it says The Sims 3 as a folder in there, your disk will have installed it in the Origin folder, so you would be able to buy it from Origin, if its not there I am unsure if you can buy the expansions from Origin.

Hi @harriet_jade,

 

You can redeem the codes you have (the codes that came with your disks) to your EA/Origin Account following these steps. That will allow you download and install those games (The Sims 3 and other packs you have in physical) using Origin and you will have no issues buying and adding new packs through Origin Wink

 

Let us know if you have any questions,

Mai
