When I enter Create A Sim, the bugged knee highs still appear for Women, but not Men. However his icon shows the half black, half white bugged version of him. When I go into a saved game most of my sims are now black shadows, the bugged baby as well. I'm not sure why since the custom content is now in a folder on the Desktop.

I have rechecked the Launcher and while all the Saved Sims now show up with a placeholder there is still clothing, make-up and shoes showing on the Installed tab. Next I moved all the Sims3 files from the Downloads folder and dumped them into a Desktop folder as well. (I'm starting to get desperate lol) At that point the boots still appeared in Create A Sims when I restarted the game. Tonight I tried moving all the Saved Sims to a folder on the Desktop. They appeared for Men only once under Shoes. I forget if it was the folder or the other icon. Are the knee high boots actually part of the base game? The second thumbnail had an icon on it of some kind. They appeared for women in Shoes TWICE-once with an thumbnail with no icon so that it appears to be part of the base game. The boots were still viewable in Create A Sim.

I was able to extract two package files OK but had zero luck using Custard to do ANYTHING (not sure what I'm doing wrong there) and viewing them in SimPE did not give a thumbnail of the bugged item as the tutorial suggested it would. I installed Custard and Sim PE and per one of the Cimric tutorials tried to view a sim saved to a Desktop folder wearing the bugged boots and tried to view it using Delphi Extractor and Custard and Sim PE. I then went through the Launcher Installed tab and uninstalled everything without a blank Type box. I deleted cache items from the Downloads folder per some other person's list. I then cut and pasted the file names from her list to the search box of the DC Backup folder and deleted the ones I found there. I used the Crinric bad CC list and removed all I could find from my INSTALLED tab on the launcher. I only have base Sims 3 release game installed and patched. So far: Total downloads are only about 70 sims and a half dozen empty residential lots from the Exchange. If you happen to see this any input would be much appreciated. I've tried most of the things suggested so far but am still having problems both in finding help and doing the actual fix. Hi, I've only played S3 about a month now and am having a terrible time getting rid of the hooker boot bug that I downloaded with either a sim or empty house from the Exchange.
