You can install Sims 3 without being connected to the internet with a valid code that has been used previously. The Sims 3 serial codes are then validated through the launcher, which will fail if it is an invalid or already registered code. You can install a used disk no problem!
Where is the registration code on Sims 3?
The code is on the back of the manual for your game. It will be a 20 digit, alpha-numeric code. If you lose your registration code for a game you installed through Origin, you can still find your code in the Origin client.
Why did I Lose my Sims 3 serial code?
I lost my Sims 3 Serial code. [SOLVED] I wanted to install my Sims 3 game again, which is on CD, because I bought Sims 3 pets on Origin. Although, I do have the Sims 3 disc and case, but I lost my booklet that contained the serial code. And I didn’t register it on the Sims 3 website, so I can’t get it from here.
What to do if your Sims 3 registration code is invalid?
You need to contact Customer Support. You have the option to contact them by mail, phone or Live Chat. For Live Chat, make sure to choose US as your country. I don’t work or have any association with EA. I give advice to the best of my knowledge and cannot be held responsible for any damage done to your computer/game.
Can you sell an unused Sims 3 code?
There was a time when sometimes players would be lucky enough to get a sympathetic customer support agent who would sell them a new unused code for something like half price. But typically no, used and already registered games cannot be registered again by a new “owner” as the games are not transferable.
Is it possible to UN-register your Sims 3 game?
I bought mine used and was told I would need to buy a new game in order to play, meaning the one I already bought is unusable. Because the game is installed through Origin it is not possible for the previous user to un-register the code and pass it on. They are one time use codes now. That’s ridiculous.
How do I redeem serial code for Sims 3?

How to reinstall Sims 3 when you cant find the game?
IT SHOULD work. The Sims 3 game should be added to your Origin Game library. Make sure you haven’t registered it anywhere else. After making sure that all Sims 3 expansions etc have been uninstalled, and you have added them all to your origin games library, begin installing them.
