      You can go to you control panel on your computer and when the list of installed programs comes up you can uninstall it from there. But why would you need to uninstall the game to install Island Paradise? Its an EP so you wouldn't need to uninstall it. As for your update here is a link to the sims 3 forum so you can download it directly and update your game. "forum.thesims3.com/jforum/posts/list/175477.page" . If it doesn't do a direct link just copy and paste it into your browser. Also ALWAYS back up your save file for your game before updating. I hope that helps.

    I haven't played my sims in a while and when I got back on, it said I couldn't play the game, it said "Unable to launch Sime 3, please reinstall the base game" and when I went to reinstall it by putting in the serial code, it said It couldn't reinstall because this game has already been installed. It's been a few months and I'm going insane without my sims, HELP ME PLEASE. IM VERY DESPERATE!!

    • @TheBuildingSimmer

      On the base game disc should be files that are the same as in the programs file on your computer. You should copy from the disc to the hard drive the files you need. Let me look it up for exact details. I'm not home right now so it might take a little while.

    • @TheBuildingSimmer
      @TheBuildingSimmer  9 лет назад

      TheAbiGrimshaw Ok. FIRST: BACK UP YOUR SAVE FILE!! C:\Users\Tisuto\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Saves, you can put it on your desktop if you want but you should also make a copy to a flashdrive or something. NEXT: Open My Computer > right click on the game disc, open in new window > highlight all of the files (ctrl+a). Go to the sims 3 folder on your hard drive, C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3, paste those files in the Sims 3 folder. That should correct the files in the game for you.

      +Dixie Parmer (LalaLoops) are you running windows 7 or 8. I did a little research and it seems like people with 8 are having the most trouble with the game. Try running the game with a different compatibility. computerbasicslearning.blogspot.com/2013/01/how-to-get-sims-3-to-work-with-windows.html

    • @TheBuildingSimmer
      @TheBuildingSimmer  10 лет назад

      I would contact ea. Go to their website and you can use the chat help. If they can't fix it through chat then ask for number to call. And then that usually works. They may have to reset it for you but you should have .exe copy on your hard drive. I know mine does for my downloads. Your best bet would be to contact ea.

    I just bought Sims Generations for my PC and I need to update the game before I can install it. My internet was so slow, though. That is the only way I know how to update the game. Is there another way? (And I've been playing Sims 3 for the past month without opening the launcher . Does anyone know of a patch .Thanks...

      +Kell Harrison Do you mean the launcher doesn't have the update button at the bottom of the list? Follow the instructions in the description. Here is the link to the patch. forum.thesims3.com/jforum/posts/list/175477.page Don't open your launcher to install it. Just click on the patch when you download it. It should work on its own.

      Check the description for the patch website. Copy and paste it because you can't just click it to go to the site for some reason. It will take you to the forum page where you can download the superpatch.

    • @TheBuildingSimmer
      @TheBuildingSimmer  10 лет назад

      you go to your control panel on your pc and uninstall. you have to uninstall the sp/ep before you do the base game. Remember to back your game saves up unless you just want to restart everything.

    • @TheBuildingSimmer
      @TheBuildingSimmer  10 лет назад

      C:\Users\Tisuto\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3 go to that link on your computer then copy and save your files. You NEED saves, downloads and exports. You can also get Screenshots and Recorded Videos if there are pics that you want to save. Be sure to save it to a external source like a flash drive or external hard drive. If you save it to your desktop and something happens to your computer, you won't be able to recover it.

    what happens to your saves games if you do this ?

    • @TheBuildingSimmer
      @TheBuildingSimmer  4 года назад

      What do you mean? Nothing should happen to your saves. Back them up as a precaution. If you un-installed your game you will need them to put your saves back.

      Look at the date on the video BEFORE you take it's advice. If it's more than 6 months then it's likely not to help you.
