@Tlaradavis  Yes, add back the files from your old Sims 3 folder a handful of files, or one subfolder, at a time, and see when the game crashes again.  Not everything needs to be preserved; here's an explanation of what all the data is for:

If a particular file or set of files is giving you problems and you'd like help sorting through the content rather than getting rid of everything, just let me know what it is.

today a new issue has popped up. None of my Sims 3 expansion packs are in the launcher. I see several posts about similar things happening but Idk if this is related to my previous issue.

@Tlaradavis  This is probably not related to your previous issue.  Try repairing the game in Origin: open your game library, right-click on the Sims 3 icon, and select Repair.

If that doesn't help, clear Origin's cache:

If that doesn't help either, uninstall Origin "the hard way" and reinstall.
