If they aren't in the recycle bin (probably aren't), they're gone.  Sorry!

In the future: Before installing a new pack, go to My Documents\EA Games and rename the The Sims 2 folder to something like "The Sims 2 safe"  After the installation, delete the new The Sims 2 folder and change the name of your "real" one back.

Ooohh... Thanks :3  I knew it! but I think she called it the "Back up folder"..
How did it happen if she named the folder differently?

Did she search her entire computer for the Back up folder? Maybe it got saved somewhere she didn't realize it was saving it to.
