Update 01/05/2016
Today we get yet another small patch. It's to make sure CAW is working again. This update has also stripped the download versions of the EPs/SPs of SecuRom. This means that you will need to update to 1.69, should you want to install the EPs through Origin. Microsoft research autocollage.

If you want to stay at 1.67, you need the pre-Sept 2002 disc version and all expansions on disc.

If you update to 1.69, please update your game again and use the 1.69 version of CAW posted her: CAW
If you decided to stay at 1.67, you don't need to do anything. Do NOT download this new CAW version or it could mess up your worlds.
- Trusted Windows (PC) download The Sims 3 1.69. Virus-free and 100% clean download. Get The Sims 3 alternative downloads.
- Patch 1.69 (All Versions) Patch 1.69 is unique. It is not delivered through the Launcher but through Origin and is for Windows users of Origin only. There is no Launcher based or independent download/super patch available.
Please also see more information in this thread: Update to Sims 3 + CAW.
EA/Maxis has updated the tool page and both versions are available to download. Make sure you download the right one.
The Sims 3: World Adventures v2.10.5 All No-DVD Cheewongken The Sims 3: Hidden Springs v1.0 All No-DVD Fairlight The Sims 3: Fast Lane Stuff All Backup-DVD NetShow The Sims 3: Showtime v1.0 All No-DVD Fairlight The Sims 3: World Adventures v2.10.5 All No-DVD Cheewongken Sims 3: Katy Perry's Sweet Treats v1.0 All No-DVD Fairlight. However, does it mean they will show some love to Sims 3?? Oct 29, 2019 @ 9:24pm I would rather they didn't show any 'love' to the sims 3. I have seen their 'love' with Patch 1.69 and I don't want any of that. Oct 30, 2019 @ 12:54am They better don't force patch 1.69 on Steam users.
The whole purpose of this patch is to make the game more compatible with Origin and to add a new feature: Expansion and Stuff Pack Manager. There are no changes to the game code itself.
This patch is offered through Origin and not the launcher so if you don't have Origin, it won't be offered to you. It's also not for Mac and not for the Steam Version.
If you don't want to update, make sure to turn off automatic updates in Origin. This patch is optional and it's your choice if you want to install it or not. There are consequences for the download version which I have described in the other post linked above.
Please take the necessary precautions before patching anyways: What to do before patching.
There are no patch notes
All core mods need updating because of the version number change. Core mods will throw an Unofficial Game Modification error but the message can be bypassed.
ErrorTrap is in testing.

There are no other changes to the code hence all other mods will continue to function properly.

Not needed since it's a patch through Origin.
There are no manual links for this patch. If you don't want to update to 1.69 make sure you keep a copy of the 1.67 super patch for safe-keeping.
CAW currently has an issue and doesn't work with this patch level. Because of the new Origin-tie-in it's possible that EIG will stop working altogether like it does for the newer base game versions.
CAW has been update. See above. I do not know yet what the take on EIG is.
If you don't want to update, make sure you download the current CAW for safe-keeping
