    Same here. In my case it was 5 packs that got updated, I believe, Kids' Room was one of them and I have no idea why, but.. The game still works, so no reason to worry.

    Hmm. After the last update, in CAS, for all ages from Teen upwards, it shows that new Face and Body items are available but I can't find them? Have repaired the game through Origin (several times), removed all CC (didn't have cc at the time of the update), have deleted the ReticulatedSpinesView folder (also several times) and am really stuck as to what to do next! I play on PC with full specs.
    Any ideas on what else I could try. It doesn't affect my game but it's annoying!

    I got three updates, too. One of them was Kids Room, but I forget the other two. I think they were Seasons and Holiday, but I'm not sure.

    I’ve been having this issue too. I even tried all of the skin tones and it didn’t fix it.

    Origin updated again today, for the fifth time in a little over two weeks. It was a glitchy update with a couple of interruptions that seemed to be happening on their end, not because of any internet problems on my end. I now have a notification that states add-on content has been installed, but I guess I need to load my game before I know which packs were affected? I question why we weren't told about this new update that supposedly added free dlc/updates to our game. This has been happening far too often lately yet I don't see where anything has been added when I load my test save afterward. And as others have stated, different packs are being updated for different players. I realize Origin has been updating some of their on line functions, but that does not explain what else has been changed because of the last few updates. A little bit of info would be helpful.

    @QueenMercy I'm glad I'm not the only one!

    Exact same three but mine was a couple of days ago. I never found anything new in the game and nobody reported anything so I didn't think anything of it. The game still works exactly as it did before, no problems (I only have a few small tuning mods and a couple of Sandy's cc items at the moment). So no idea what that was :D

    It might have just been file verification unless it downloaded something. In that case I'm not sure.

    What do folder/file timestamps tell you?

    Yes I had exactly those three update a few days ago, but I didn't see any one else mention an update at the time so just dismissed it. Wonder if the Chinese Language update still needed tweaking or some thing on those lines?

    Updating on the Soundtrack though? It's an MP3 file with songs on the game?

    Hello.

    Regarding those 3 DLC, there was a small update a few days ago to fix an installer issue when installing those 3 DLC with Simplified Chinese selected as the install language. All players that own those DLC received the update.
    If I don't actively respond here, I'm sorry. I can get a bit busy over at https://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4/ct-p/the-sims-4-en
