  • @bkrieger thanks, but during installation it tells me that current account is already exists and cancels installation =(((
  • C:Program data, Then I searched for “EAdesktop” (no spaces) There’s a a .Msi program there, that if you launch will give you 3 options, one of which is “remove” I clicked that and then it removed everything and then I reinstalled and it worked immediately.

  • thanks m8 worked a treat. @bkrieger 

    here's how I managed to uninstall and reinstall......... First  I run take ownership mod on the EA folder........then I run a program called 10bit uninstaler......after this I ran take ownership on the files that remained in the EA folder and deleted it........then I used reg edit to find all keys attached to EA and deleted them.......... then I used the link bkrieger posted  and it's almost all working  only problem I now have is I can not install Crysis 3  keeps telling me there is a error to restart pc 

    All other games are fine

    Hope this helps

    @Mrtofumagic Dude I so * love you, quite a disgrace that you have to find a fix to a * app on other users. I really think they force us to use EAdesktop with our game pass so we can be his betatesters, I found EA giving free games quite strange hahahahaha
  • No problem.

    here’s what the person on Reddit said they did 

  • @bkrieger any hints on reddit if this installer tells me that account is already existed and stops installation?
  • I've been struggling with this issue for a few hours now and this worked first time no questions asked. Thank you so much!

    Same for me. Do you found a solution for your problem?

  • Unfortunately, this did not help me either. The problem still exists. Support has given me on request all the solutions from the German and the English thread on this, nothing works. I have manually deleted all EA files and folders on SSD, HDD and from the registry. The error message remains the same.

  • The only solution that works, resetting my PC is not an option

  • I already deleted that but still the same problem, any other solution? Tried the Reddit one as well.
