I want to completely reinstall sim4 but without all the expansion and game packs I bought. but when I tried to do this all the packs were automatically installing too when I download the sims 4 again. Is there a way to prevent this and manually install one by one which ones I want reinstalled? I should mention this is on the Mac. I know on PC you can see in explorer individual packs and delete them. I can't seem to find the same folder system on the Mac
It actually isn't complicated I found this to be much easier in disabling packs, since at the moment there isn't a toggle function to do so unfortunately in disabling and you can't uninstall it from origin either since it only shows the base game. (Thought at one point you'd be able to like the sims 3 but i don't even see that available anymore for the game to do individually)
James Turner from the sim supply simplified it even more with this easy little tool. No need to download just click on the icons on which packs you want to disable and just copy and paste it as Rosemow mentioned so you don't have to take the time to type it out. All packs there except for Laundry Day for the moment.

Problem is he probably only supports the Windows OS. I would think you could turn off Automatic Update and it would allow you to choose what to install.

You need to install the expansion and game packs, but once they are installed you can disable them. This link explains how to do that
