Riverview Has Disappeared!

I play the Microsoft ones. There are daily challenges of 5 different games.

Another Silly question, have you tried downloading RV with a different browser Firefox or Edge.

It's been suggested to use a different browser to download store content having problems downloading or keeping store content installed.

I remember awhile back having problems keeping store content installed. So I tried downloading it with a different browser and for whatever reason it was able to stay installed.

I'm not sure why though. It has always baffled me why downloading store content with a different browser made a difference.

I downloaded it with Edge just now and it's in the drop-down. I wonder how long it will stay there. Wouldn't that be something if that was the issue all along?
Anyway, I'm going to go and make supper now so I'll try it later. I'll load in some of my saves and see what happens. Then I'll d/l UC and see what happens with that. Last time it seemed I could have one or the other but not both.

We've had issues with downloading store content with a browser and it not working, Then trying downloading with a different browser and it working just fine.  It's been a long while, but it's definitely worth a try.

You're not able to keep both Riverview and Union Cove installed?

I feel I may have asked this before - Have you tried running the game as Administrator?
- Right-click on the Sims 3 icon and select Run as Administrator.

Wanted to share this link as well as it's got some great troubleshooting info in it.

I've seen that suggestion but when I right click on the icon I don't even see an option to run as admin.

[MrsFlynn]

Try this: Right-click on the Sims 3 icon go to the compatibility tab and check the box that says Run as Administrator.

What version of Windows 10 are you using?

The reason I ask is because there are different versions of Windows 10 that more or less features.

Which version of Windows operating system am I running?

21H1?

[MrsFlynn]

That's the current patch for Windows 10. Just above that should be the Windows Edition - should say something like Windows 10 Pro or Windows 10 Home.  Also, it may have something about S mode with it.
