I was just about to reply saying that origin wont let me download bf 2042 on it and as I was opening it to show the error I get (says it can only be downloaded from ea desktop app) it started to download just fine. Ill update once it finishes downloading as I hope all my data is still there.

@nighthawk1099, Battlefield 2042 only has online saved data! So as long as you're signed in with the correct EA account, it should be fine.

Did you see any progress? 🙂

@EA_Leeuw Yep, I was able to download it! No clue why I was having issues with downloading it on origin a couple of months ago.

@nighthawk1099, glad to hear that the issue has been resolved! By the way, we also figured out that the issue that you're experiencing didn't only affect Battlefield. It affected a lot of games and we have found a workaround for it as well: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports-Technical-Issues/Unable-to-play-purchased-game-Getting-Error-Message-quot-There/m-p/11346043.
