Uninstalled Apex, 20GB folder is still there

Hello! I've had apex for a couple weeks now, but due to storage constraints, I had to uninstall it. It said uninstalled, and I can no longer play it, however the Apex folder is still taking up 20GB. If the folder is still there, why can't I play it, and if it's uninstalled, why is it still there. Is there a way to cleanly uninstall it without just dragging the folder into the trash? Thanks!

  • Well I found the problem. My memory failed me and I now remember that I didn't delete the game, it just said it was deleted. I now realize what happened: I moved the game folder out of the install location, and Origin was just looking in the old folder. I fixed the problem by right clicking Apex, and clicking, "Locate Game", and redirecting it to the right folder. Thank you for your response-it jogged my memory! 😃 Thanks again for your time!

    Glad to hear that you got it sorted @x_ReanuKeeves_x.


    I was going to make a joke about losing your mind, but figure you've already forgotten.

    Enjoy your gaming.

  • Glad your uninstall issue was resolved.

    For the people still trying to play and crashing (even more since update) -- EA_Darko, any new "guides" to help me get more frustrated this hasnt been resolved?
