This user has the following games installed:

Sims 3, World Adventures, Ambitions, Late Night, Generations, Pets, Showtime, Supernatural, Seasons, University Life, Island Paradise, Into the Future
Default 70s, 80s & 90s Stuff disappearing.
I know what is causing this problem, and I can (sort of) fix it, I'd just like to know why its happening and if its something wrong with my game. I recently had to re-install 70s, 80s & 90s Stuff, since for some then unknown reason all the items had disappeared. Today I ran Clary Utilities registry cleanup and then I started up Sims 3. After loading my current game I got a message saying that some items could not be loaded and had been replaced, On investigation I found it was, once again everything from the said Stuff Pack. Suspecting the cause I used the restore feature on Clary Utilities and bingo, everything is fine again. I have flagged those registry entries so that the the program will ignore them in future. But why should that happen? And why just with that particular stuff pack?

Well, I suppose it is my fault for not paying attention to what I'm doing. I tried uninstalling 70s, 80s and 90s stuff again, then running Clary Utilities before re-installing it, (I thought the thing may not have been properly un-installed the first time). Made no difference, the registry entries still show as pointing to non-existent files. Very odd. The stuff is all showing up fine in the game. I shall just have to be more careful in future.
