When I initially installed the sims 3 onto this computer (Windows 10), the game would not start properly and crash before loading because I had set the properties of the game's exe file to be run as an administrator (I did this with my other computer and figured that this computer would need a similar setting, but it did not) that caused problems for me, so I had to uncheck the box in compatibility properties for the game's exe file to start normally. I am considering installing my expansions through my DVDs everyday as this problem goes unfixed. The store stuff only works during the game session until I restart my computer, then they stop working when I reload the game. The store content fails when I try to install them through the launcher, but they install through the game's download dashboard. I cannot download and install any of my expansion packs and stuff packs, and store content will not install properly. My TS3 game starts, but I'm having a lot of problems with the EA App and store downloads.
