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

Doesn't work?

I don't even see a compatibility tab. The only place I have the icon is on the desktop shortcut.

That's (desktop shortcut) is what I'm talking about. Sorry about that.

I got the wrong path. Right-click on the Sims 3 shortcut > Properties > Compatibility tab and check the box that says Run as Administrator.

Looked up some more info....

Go into Steam Find Sims 3 In Steam - Right click on game and go to Manage and inside there click browse local files. That should take you to your install directory. From there go into the game folder then go into the bin folder - Find TS3.exe right click on that and select properties.

You should be able to find the compatibility tab from there.

I had a reply typed up and when I went to your most recent post, it disappeared. :D
I just launched the game and RV is still there including a couple of my saves. The real test will be when I turn it on tomorrow. It seems just downloading it through Edge was the answer.

This is weird. a couple of posts didn't send. I think I must be tired and didn't actually post them. It's past my bedtime. :D

Yep... I'm getting sleepy too. That will be a good test. Shut things down for now and check it tomorrow to see if RV has stayed installed. :)
