The Exchange Download Help

My game is updated to the latest patch but when I go to download something from The Exchange it says

"Update Your Game
Oops! It looks like the item you are trying to download requires an update to your game. Your current game version number is located in the bottom-left corner of your launcher. To update your game, click the “Game Updates” button of your launcher and follow the instructions."

What is going on?

    Well, there could be many things. It happened with me at one point, but long ago.

    If it says update, go to and check if there's something else to update by going to "Game Updates" in your launcher.

    If there's nothing further to update then maybe you should restart your computer.

    I wish I could remember what happened, how it got fix and everything. I hope I can be good enough help.

    Hi,

    You can still download Exchange content via your web browser by using the “Save File” link in the item's detailed description page. When the file is downloaded, place it in the following location:

    Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Downloads

    When that is done, run the launcher and go to the Downloads tab. Now install the Exchange item as you normally would.
    When you need help with The Sims 3 or The Sims 4, be sure to check out the Master Help Thread today!
