I just started origin, and it says battlefield 2042 (trial) in the download manager.
To make it more accurate:
- Origin started downloading / veryfying battlefield 2042 trial
- It now proceeds to download / verify battlefield 2042 ultimate edtion
- I am going to remove the trial version, to see if everything keeps working.
I cannot delete the trial version. If I launch the app through EA app, it still has the same error: Every other launch, it says trial version (no "not allowed to polay" error anymore).
So I did some things and I found out the following:
- I installed through origin, it did install the game without the "trial" exe version
- When I move the install folder to the EA games folder and let the EA app redownload it, it added the trial exe
- I started through the desktop and the installed section of the EA app": Everything works fine.
- I start the game through the sidebar of the EA app, and it gives me the trial error.
- I removed the trial.exe file, and when launching through the sidebar of the ea app, every other time it complains about not finding the trial.exe version
So I tested it some more and I Only get the error throught the EA app, unrelated to if the game installed through the EA app or Origin, and only every other time when clicking the play button in the sidebar of the EA app.
I made the choice today to remove the ea app and just keep with Origin for now. Origin doesnt give me any errors and everythign works fine. I reinstalled the game just to be sure. Only thing is origin gives a breakpoint error whenever I close windows. This seems to be a known issue.
