Hey guys,

For a few weeks, I have been trying to update my game from 1.22 to 1.24. It goes through the downloading process but then I get an "Invalid File Found" error message.

I removed all of my mods from the game and it still hasn't completed updating. Any tips??

How are you downloading it? If you are downloading it through any means with EA, i'd suggest you try downloading it directly from a link, which you can find on SimPrograms here: http://www.simprograms.com/the-sims/the ... he-sims-3/

My game automatically tries to update itself when I load up my Sims 3 Launcher. I am doing a little research from the Sims 3 site now to find out what I need to do. If I can't find the solution to the problem, I'll try the link you sent me.

Okay. I'm not sure, I'm justbeing general. But generally there is a lot of problems with automatically updating, EADM (is it Origin now?) and all that EA related stuff.

That was it! I had to upgrade the EA Download Manager to Origin, and the game was able to update itself to patch 1.24

Thanks Swat!

No problem! Glad it worked out and you didn't need to uninstall everything and all that mess.
