Re: Origin Spotlight - Managing Your Games and EA Account

i think when uninstalling a game instead of just going to the add/remove and have the user locate the game on the installed list i think origin should at least run the uninstaller same time with a prompt to continue or decline/refuse the process altogether.

    Hi there,

    Thank you for adding your feedback.

    So what you mean is that when a player uninstalls a game via the control panel, you would like to see Origin handle this process, and give an additional confirmation before the game gets uninstalled?

    It is worth noting that you currently cannot permanently remove games from your Origin library.

    hey Tom, what i mean is when i have a game installed on my system when i right click on it on origin and choose to uninstall it ...it just opens the control panel on windows on the add/remove programs list and you have to locate the game on that list then trigger the actual uninstall process ...what i mean like on steam when you trigger a game uninstall process it removes it from the client side it would be nice if origin can at least trigger the uninstaller instead of having to do it manually from the add/remove programs section on windows.

    I get it now - thanks for clarifying!

    That's a great piece of feedback, and I agree that this would make the uninstall process for players that much easier. I will send this up for review for you.

    Thanks again for taking the time to share with us 🙂
