Hey all :D

Well let me get straight to my problem..Okay I was going thru my downloads folder today and notice alot of files with this at the end with package.package.package :confused: So I'm wondering.. Is it safe to delete the extra package or leave it?  I don't want to mess up something and take a chance of it not working properly.Thanks in advance you can help =)

Yes, you may delete all the extentions .package.package because it means that you extracted sims or sims objects using the sims installer. They are not necessary. If Windows gives you a warning such as "if you change the name, the file can be unreadable", just ignore it and proceed.

 :confused: on the same note, I have a lot of "temp" files which, when I sort the downloads  file according to name, always appear next to a file which has the Clean installer picture-logo next to them, but which have the same name. What are those files, are they essential? (SIMS2TMP.Files versus Package.File)
I have a massive Downloads folder and don't want to have stuff in there which just takes up space  :rolleyes:
Thank you for help.

You can safely delete those files. They're just leftover files from when you installed a house or sim into your game.
