Can't uninstall Dragon Age: Origins - Ultimate Edition from Origin client
Hello there. I bought DAO - UE on Steam years ago, and I found out recently that you could activate it on Origin. For modding reasons I decided this was my best path, so yesterday I activated my keys. I copied my Steam DAO folder to my Origin folder and asked it to verify the files and redownload anything that was missing - I thought this would save redownloading the entire game. However, I checked it this morning and the folder I had moved was gone. I don't know where it went but it disappeared, and I was given a message that said something like "You do not have permission to install to this drive" and then after that "There was an error with your download. Please try again." I thought that was unusual so I decided to uninstall everything and just start again... and that was when my issues began. I can't uninstall DAO. I also own The Sims 3, Mass Effect 3 and Battlefield 3, and they all uninstalled fine. I thought that was odd, so I went and had a look in the "Add/Remove Programs" dialog. No uninstall entries. I went and had a look in the Origin folder, the ProgramData cache, the temp folders... There are no folders anywhere for DAO. Absolutely nothing. I get the feeling it installed to a location that doesn't exist or something? I honestly have no idea.
Just now, I uninstalled and reinstalled Origin after clearing everything out and completely cleaning my computer... It's still in my "Installed Games" menu. Even though it's not installed. I can't verify files, I can't uninstall it (it just pops up the "Add/Remove Programs" dialog), I can't remove it from Origin. Something is seriously broken. I know I probably caused this, it doesn't bother me. What does bother me is I can't remove it from Origin. I can't uninstall whatever it thinks is still installed. Anyone have any ideas? I'm completely lost here.
EDIT: I have since moved Origin from my larger, faster HD to my slower main drive and it appears to be ready to install fine. So now my question is, why can I not install DAO on my secondary drive anymore? Is there some data hiding somewhere that stops that from happening?
