How do I delete .Sims3pack files completely?

[kazebird]

I have some free downloads from the store, and I want to get rid of them, so I can use the .dbc sets for Store Content without duplicates. No matter how much I search I can't find the answer to these two questions.

First of all, how do I get rid of the store content completely. I know deleting them using the dreaded launcher (which I no longer use,) does not delete the files completely.

Secondly, will I have to replace in game instances of the store objects I have used, or will the objects remain what they are supposed to be? (Will the old town fan still be the old town fan after replacing the files.)

Thank you, that is quite helpful.

Are you going to delete the thread again?

Yeah, sorry about that, I just got a little nervous that I overlooked something while searching for the answers. I'm still not sure that I didn't overlook something, but I figured the reward was worth the risk.

Edit: Wait, upon re-reading your post, I am a little confused. You know I'm talking about getting rid of the free store items, installed via launcher right? The ones from EAxis? (I got them before I started to bypass the launcher.)

Everything installed via the launcher is installed to the DCCache folder. Delete the .dbc files therein. Also delete the contents of DCBackup, and you can delete the Sims3pack files found in Downloads.
