Store sets downloaded won't show up (I'm using Windows 8) [ Edited ]

[patscatfreckles]

Wow, I was really looking forward to building farm lots with cows and chickens when I purchased two fairly expensive sets, but, for 3 days now, I've done everything I know to do (and I'm pretty computer/sims-savy) to "find" them - but they don't show up anywhere. And, yes, my game is patched to the latest version. (Well, I should point out that every time I upload Sims 3 to play, the launcher announces a new patch is available and I "successfully" install it - but the same message returns again with each launch).

They're NOT under "decorations". They're NOT under "outdoor activities". Does anyone out there have any idea WHERE they are? mileyfrustrated:

If you do and can tell me - here's a big "thank you!"
