Dear God, STOP with the fucking smileys already. That's, what, the sixth one on this page? We don't need to be constantly updated on your expression.

Try this:
- Open a DOS Command Prompt window.
- Drag s3rc.exe to it. Then type space and -fD and another space.
- Drag your .sims3pack to the command prompt window.
- You should then have something that looks like "c:\path\s3rc.exe" -fD "c:\path\whatever.sims3pack" (where path is the full path of where the file is located).
- Hit ENTER.
Tested. Works.

I feel like a fool but I can not drag anything into the command prompt window.
I can't either. So I Googled it and found the drag and drop feature has been disabled in Windows Vista. Unless you don't have Vista; then I don't know what to say.
Slymenstra:
It must be a Vista problem then. I found I was NOT fully patched so I fixed that issue at least. But I still can not get the broken/uninstallable sims3packs to install after using decrap or s3rc.
Oh well this is way too much fiddling for such a bug ridden game anyway! My sims usually corrupt themselves in just a few generations just from going on vacation. I have what I need working. Until someone can tell me how to work this with retarded Vista I will go back to my Sims for now.

Ah, learn something new every day. I didn't know you can't drag & drop onto the Command Prompt in Vista. Well, you can just type in the full path, it will be just as effective, just not as easy.
I'm completely guessing, but maybe the issue some of you are having is permissions based. When you open a command prompt, make sure it says "Administrator: Command Prompt". If it doesn't say "Administrator", then run Command Prompt by right clicking it and selecting "Run as Administrator". Then try typing in:
"c:\path\s3rc.exe" -fD "c:\path\whatever.sims3pack" (where path is the full path of where the file is located)
And see if that makes a good .sims3pack. With Vista, do you also have UAC enabled? Try disabling it.
