Intalling Furnishings into The Sims 1
  1. Click on the "DOWNLOAD" button. If you are asked for your Platinum username and password, enter it. If you don't have a Platinum subscription you will need to subscribe by going here to have access to the download you're requesting.
  2. You should be asked if you'd like to save or open your file. Save it to a location on your computer that you will remember like the "My Documents" folder or on your "Desktop." We recommend that you make a special folder on your computer to keep all of the .zip files you download from WDS and other sites. For example, you may have a folder on your desktop called "WDS" where you keep WDS files and a folder on your desktop called "SimNonesuch" where you keep SimNonesuch files.
  3. Find the .zip file you've downloaded and decompress it to:
    C:\Program Files\Maxis\The Sims\Downloads\WDS
    The \WDS folder will have to be created the first time you download to help keep track of your furnishings.

    Decompressing .zip files is a built in function of Windows ME and above and can be accessed by right-clicking on the .zip file and selecting "Extract All..." If you don't have this built in you may need to use a free decompression tool like Filzip or WinZip.
  4. Completely exit and restart your game and your furnishings will be accessible from the catalog at the bottom in build or buy mode.
