New EPs and My Downloads Folder

[Zoe]

So I have a few questions one question about buying new expansion packs and installing them, because I've never actually installed a new EP/SP when I had CC in my DLs folder.
So my question is:
If I install a new expansion pack, will it in any way affect my neighborhood folder/downloads folder/anything else?
I'm such a major n00b when it comes to this kind of technical game stuff, but I was pretty sure it wouldn't affect it. I just wanted to be sure of what would happen.

No, I'm certain that your current game files won't be affected in any way.
I've installed several EPs with CC in my downloads folder and all you have to do is remember to re-enable CC when you start up the game again.

Ooh. Which EP are you getting?

You can make back-ups just to be sure. I've never tried it myself, so I can't say for sure. But I read somewhere that you should remove all hacks/mods before a new installation. Probably because hacks normally require a certain EP, I would say.

I'm getting Seasons, because I lost disk 1 for it a while back. I just can't live without it. Probably my favorite EP.

Okay, thanks guys! I figured nothing would change, but I wanted to be sure.
