Okay so I bought the base game on origin, and downloaded it on origin but now wanna use the torrented expansion packs and DLCs. However I have read to play with them you need to run sthe sims 4 with origin closed, however whenever I run the sims 4 origin automatically opens? Is there a way to stop it from opening and for the sims 4 to run.

EDIT : 
I have just managed to get my game running, aftering installing my base game from origin, i then copy and pasted all the folders from the get to work and get together xpacs, and then applied the ultimate fix, at first i thought my game was freezing after starting up, but after leaving it open for a couple mins, it kicked back into life saying it was installing DLC. If anyone else had the same problem, maybe try following what i did, along with all the steps from the installation guide you get with the ultimate fix.
