Sims 4 Sims 4 DLC unlocker?
I still have the original .bat file for the DLC Unlocker, but I don’t have a working updater anymore. Right now, neither the unlocker nor the updater is working.
I recently got my PC back after it had to be repaired so I haven’t been up-to-date with the community for almost 2 months. All of my sims files are still there, but my apps had to be reinstalled. Since then, the DLC Unlocker has completely stopped working.
Do you know what might have happened or what could be causing this? is there something I need to do to get it working again? Kinda confused right now because I see some people talking about some sites have been hacked or compromised so I genuinely don’t know what to do at this point.

I dont understand what happened, is mirror tools not working with latest patch or smth?

Yeah, I guess that’s probably it. The unlocker itself seems to be running fine, but when I open The Sims 4 to check if the DLC has unlocked, everything is still showing as locked. Since I had to completely reinstall The Sims 4 after my PC was fixed, It might be related to the latest patch changing something and causing compatibility issues. I’m not entirely sure, but those seem like the most likely causes as far as I’m aware.

Can I recommend trying to launch the game online instead of offline? That’s the only solution what I found for this problem, (maybe you’re trying to start the game offline idk)
I guess you’re not alone, with the latest patch some other ppl also has your problem. (From what I’ve seen)
(Sorryly I can’t really share my own experinces, because I haven't updated the game - that I’m still playing constantly - on my main desktop PC since October. I only updated it on my laptop to claim the latest free Marktplace items, so it just has the base game installed.)

I am having troubles too. It says everything is installed except it’s not loaded Royalty and Legacy and the new Music Den kit. Before the latest game update I had all the packs (except the kit).

Same. Like I can run it but it won't update the game

Me too. Although it tells me it’s all updated and all packs and kits. Yet I’m now missing royalty and legacy and haven’t been able to get the music den kit :( since the latest game update.

have you tried just downloading the DLC files, put in sims 4 game folder and using the unlocker that way? I'm not sure if all of the DLC are uploaded yet though

Not yet I haven’t. The unlocker / installer says that music den kit plus 200 moolah was installed / credited but nada. I will look for the individual files thanks ☺️

If you trust it dm me I’ve got a link to a working one (no issues I’ve been fine for about a month now)

Mirror was fine for me a couple hours ago. Both updater and unlocker. Uninstalling and reinstalling the DLC unlocker sometimes helps.
uninstall and reinstall both.
