How to uninstall a world & all it's contents!?
I've tried b4 by going into the launcher & just pressing uninstall world, but it's not completely uninstalled b/c of the individual objects that came with it in the installed panel... (like trees, wallpapers etc.)
How does one figure out which objects came with a specific world!?
... Or do I just have to uninstall everything then reinstall what I want to keep!?
I want to uninstall Hidden Springs btw

Actually due to crappy design of The Sims launcher, you might have to make a more tedious effort to search and delete the world and the custom content that comes with the world.
Personally, I think you have to keep a list (yes in .txt or .doc(x). Just to keep a record what you have everytime you install a world, so as to track down the stuff and delete the things you want to delete.
However, if it's really messy, I strongly recommend you to delete all and start over.

That's the first time I've heard that you also have to delete/un-install other things "that came along with the installed world" (separately from the actual world); but if you say so, I guess it's true then.

To safely remove the world, you could also go to My Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3/InstalledWorlds, and then delete the file Hidden Springs.world.
As for the items that came with it, I'm equally unsure. As they don't take too much filespace, I would actually leave the items as they are - but maybe someone else has a better idea.

Hello,
As far as I know, there is no other way to uninstall them then uninstalling from the installed content tab from launcher by clicking them one by one.
And it's such a agony as mostly you don't know which item came with which world.
