Dragon Age: Inquisition missing DLCs when I try to load save
Exactly what the title says. I click continue on the menu screen and it says something along the lines of "this version of the game used DLCs, you don't have them" and lists the DLCs I "don't" have. I do have them, that's how I've been playing this entire time. My Xbox PC game pass subscription ran out and I renewed it, ever since then I can't continue my saved games.
BTW I do use mods and I have the GOTY version of the game, which comes with all the DLCs because of my EA/Xbox game pass subscription
Edit: I removed my mods for the time being, but the game still won't recognize the DLCs
Update: The "missing DLC" issue has been solved, but a new problem has arisen. The error window at the start menu now says that my saved patch is a newer version and that I need to update to the latest patch. I found another post from five months ago detailing the same issue, and they were able to solve the issue.
I tried the steps in one of the replies, but when I got to the Admin Command prompt and pasted the file path, it said it wasn't recognized as an internal or external command, operable program, or batch file. I then went to the Windows PowerShell, and it kept saying the term insert character is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. But when I just type "C:\Program Files\EA Games\Dragon Age Inquisition\Update\Patch\" it doesn't give me a success message or an error message.
I've since removed the mods in case that was the issue.
You should leave it that way until the game works normal again.
Please clear your temp files:
- Press the Windows key and "R" at the same time to open the Run dialog box.
- Into the new window, type or copy & paste: "%temp%" (Without the quotes.) > hit "ENTER"
- Now your Windows Explorer should have brought you to the "C:\Users\>your user name<\AppData\Local\\Temp" folder. > Delete all files and folders in it.
(If some files or folders can't be deleted, reboot and try again.)
Then:
- Go here and download "Revo Uninstaller. (The freeware version, Portable version works too.)
- Run "Revo Uninstaller" > EA app.
- At the end of the main uninstall, Revo will ask you which cleaning method you want to use. > Select "Advance" > Browse.
- If "Remaining registration content found" is displayed > Select All > Delete > Next
- When "Remaining Data and Folders" is displayed > Select All > Delete.
- Restart the PC
- Download a new EA app setup exe from here. (Do it even if you already have the installer!)
- Install EA app.
- Run EA app as Administrator > Click the EA app shortcut on your desktop > Run as Administrator.
- Repair the game again.
- Test.
