Tink, you could try deleting your groups.cache file and your accessory.cache file(found in your My Documents\EA Games\The Sims 2 directory)...sometimes a mod will leave residual effects until these files are rebuilt, which will happen automatically the next time you restart your game.

It's quite safe to delete these files, some ppl do this as a rule each time they play as a safeguard...the only downside is that, because the game must create replacement files, it may take a bit longer to load than normal the next time you play your game.

Good luck!

I did that. It didn't work I deleted everything in that folder but my dowloads and the CEP folder. I don't know what to do.

*EDIT* I fixed it. It ended up being a residual from a lot I downloaded, I don't know which one though.

I still have some clothing showing up like base game clothing. Its only one or 2 outfits per category/age group. I'm not sure why? I have no other mods in my downloads right now when I check to see if everything is hidden. I also need to get a hider for kitchen and bath, but thats the only sp thats not hidden.

I wanted to hide only all EPs but keep the base game content (clothes and hair) so I downloaded all files except XP0s because it is for base game (creator says) and it hides the base game also... How is that possible?

This question is nearly 8 years old, but I had the same issue and found the solution: HideHairXP1.package somehow also includes the base game hair, while HideHairXP0.package only hides like one or two hairstyles
