@CPU_UK Thanks. I started with origin telling me I only had half a GB available.

@lzilchetlWait, what? You’re still on Origin? It didn’t force you over to the EA app? Not sure at all but that may have been part of your issue. Origin is way better than the EA App, which isn’t saying much as Origin kind of sucked too, but it hasn’t been updated anymore so maybe isn’t helping.

I just started the update and after first scanning the 180 GB (preparing) it showed an 80 GB then oddly it went to 6.11 GB and that’s all it downloaded.
