Re: EA Desktop APP can't detect already installed games

I have battlefront 1 and 2, fallen order, and the sims 3 from steam installed; I also have the sims 4 installed from origin. The StarWars games all say installed on the EA app but neither sims game says they are installed despite the fact I am actively playing it, I even tried repairing the install to see if the app would notice ints installed and it repaired it but it didn't add it to my installed list.

    Why is this simple feature of rediscovering existing game files not present when the old Origin launcher did it flawlessly? What is this joke?

    I changed my EA ID while I already had the Sims 4 on my computer. I tried to play it today, it said I didn't have it and I had to download it. I tried to redownload it even though I already have on my computer. It doesn't even start downloading.

    2025 and EA still to incompetent to add this feature. Hope INzoi will kill your Sims and you go bancrupt. For real such a **bleep**ty company ignoring years of customer feedback really deserves to just vanish. And CEOs should be private accountable to all customers for their **bleep**ty ways.
