Remove an Installed EP
This can be a little difficult on Steam, but there is a method. Usually if you just untick the EP in the Properties for Sims 3, you will begin to receive an error message that there was an error during start-up and "please see the log". Helpful, right?
In order to properly uninstall the EP, you must also edit your registry. As always, editing the registry is Serious Business, and could completely hose your computer or your game. Always back up your registry and Sims saves before doing this.
To uninstall an EP from a Steam install of The Sims 3 (do not skip a step): 1. Shut down The Sims 3 completely.
2. In your Steam Library, right-click The Sims 3 and choose Properties.
3. In the Download tab, untick the EP you don't want to use any more then close the Properites window.
4. Create a System Restore Point (in Windows, right-click My Computer or your version thereof; select Properties; select System Protection; click "Create").
5. In Windows, use your "Find" charm or "Run" box to run the program regedit.exe.
6. In Registry Editor, go to File > Export and save the file to somewhere you can find it easily. This is in case something goes wrong.
7. In Registry Editor, navigate to your Sims 3 registry keys. This is normally found under: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > Wow6432Node > Sims(Steam)
8. There you will see a list of all EPs and SPs that you have installed. Right-click the EP you want to uninstall, and choose "Delete". After this, your game should start normally. Steam Guide by cruinne

Rebuild of some of my favorite houses I've done throughout the years, and 2 new ones :) Made them to fit my new sims world that has smaller lots than my old one. Very happy I did cause they came out even better the second time :)

Do all your builds have no cc versions or is it just your latest one?
Just the latest one, someone in my facebook group asked for it :)

Adding the games .exe files to DEP exception list
Another step I should have added when disabling ‘SysMain’ from my previous post is to add the game’s .exe files to the DEP exception list.
DEP is a like a Windows protection system that stops old apps and games that it thinks is a virus or malware and will either stop the game/app running altogether or make it crash if it uses a high amount of memory at one time - in the case of Sims 3, when its saving. So disabling SysMain will allow the game to use all its memory, but it’s an old game so Windows OS, especially 10/11 will try to shut it down by causing crashes at short moments of high memory and cpu usage. 
Press Windows + R keys together, type the command “sysdm.cpl” in the Run dialog box and press Enter.
Click the ‘Advanced’ tab and click ‘Settings’ under ‘Performance’. Click the ‘Data Execution Prevention (DEP)’ tab. Tick ‘Turn on DEP for all programs and services except those I select:’  and add these game .exe files to the list:
S3Launcher.exe
Sims3Launcher.exe
TS3.exe
TS3W.exe
TSLHelper.exe
You can’t add Sims3LauncherW’ to DEP exception list, so ignore it. 
Click ‘Apply’ and ‘OK’ and exit from System properties. Run your game.  See: Disable ‘SysMain’ Service for gameplay.
