Missing Expansion Packs on the Launcher - The Sims 3

★★ Novice

Hello, guys. So, I have a problem I'm still trying to solve. Late Night and Ambitions are missing from my launcher and I've tried everything to get them back to appear, however, nothing worked. Here's what I've tried so far: 

 

- Repair the game (a few times) 

- Uninstall the game (twice) 

- Uninstall Origin (twice I think) 

- Delete all the Cache Origin has

- Delete The Sims 3 Cache

- resetting the game to factory settings without uninstalling

- lowered the User Access Control settings

- moving it in another folder

 

I'm desperate at this point considering I paid to get them and consider it's upsetting. What else can I do about it?

@intellectualisms  It sounds like you may have received bad product codes for your missing packs.  This can happen if you purchase from an unauthorized third-party seller, whether the codes initially work or not.  The only way to find out if this is your issue is to contact EA customer support and specifically ask about the status of your packs, not just whether they're in your account but whether their codes are valid.

If you did buy directly from EA or from an authorized vendor, you can upload proof of purchase or ownership (screenshot of receipt or confirmation email; photo of disc, case, and insert with the code showing; etc.) when you submit the help request.

I bought the expansion packs some months ago and they worked back then. Also, thank you for telling me, I will do so.
