Not too long ago, I had to do a fresh install because I was dumb and tried to use s4cc in my game (because I didn't realize I downloaded the s4 version not the s3 version ugh DUH) and now I have done something dumb again and I really, REALLY want to avoid having to reinstall AGAIN....I got the $#^$%& arezzo right counter from a lot and I. CAN'T. GET. RID. OF. IT. Every time I try to uninstall it from the launcher, the launcher crashes.
I have searched and read and searched and I cannot find a solution. I need to get this counter out but I need a way to do it without the launcher.
I need a detailed description on how to do this if anyone knows. I cannot figure out how I'm supposed to fix it in s3pe or any of the other programs offered. My launcher will not stop crashing and I am going to go bald if I keep tearing my hair out. Seriously. Please help. With the new EA app not working AT ALL, I don't want to have to reinstall again in case it won't work at all

A quick reminder to myself and everyone to always check your downloads BEFORE you install them

I really need to do this from now on. I'm just now learning how to use s3pe and other tools so it makes the game a lot easier, especially if/when you make a mistake

@jillbg , this tool may be able to help you with that - Sims3 Pattern Recategoriser
The patterns need to be in package form to begin with, but that's easily enough done with S3Extractor.

@jillbg Yep, that was the bad CC that made me never, EVER download another sim from the Exchange again. It was another one of those things that attaches (like the counter, boots, doll, etc) to every download and is a monster to get rid of.
I can't stay away from the lots, though

Wow, thanks, @Pary - I got my weekend cut out for me!
@StephSteb Love your centaur picture, can imagine your feelings about that!
I totally agree - When I first started to play TS3, I downloaded sims from the exchange, mostly because I wanted the hair, and I hadn't yet figured out where to get CC elsewhere. And of course, I got stuck with just about every evil thingy you can imagine. A real house of horrors. I had to clean out everything, reinstall and whatnot... Discovered nRaas and became a devout follower of Twallan, whithout him I would have given up on the game all together...
@StephSteb There's a safe way to do that. Take your EA folder out of documents to keep it safe. Boot your game to create a new folder. Install the lot. The package files will install into DCBackup folder. Delete the ccmerged file. Run custard on the folder or check them individually with S3PE (or both). I usually rename them at that point from the long string of numbers and letters. You can find the original name in the XML file within S3PE. Grab the library file and those package files out then you can delete that EA folder. Put the library file in your old EA folder in the library folder and the package files THAT YOU'VE CHECKED! into your mods folder. Ta da!
There will be a duplicate package file of the lot in the dcbackup folder. You can use it instead of the library file or delete it.
