The launcher says my DLC is installed, but I can't launch my Origins save file

I have all the Add-ons for Dragon Age: Origins, when I try to manage my add-ons everything is listed as installed. I had to uninstall and reinstall the game recently, and only one add-on was uninstalled with it (Leliana's song) and everything else is listed as installed, despite not being on my computer. If I try to load any of my previous save files it stops me and says I'm missing content, and if I make a new save file it doesn't load the add-ons I should have. I can't find a way to forcibly uninstall and reinstall the add-ons. Every time I uninstall the game, only the base game and Leliana's song get removed, everything else doesn't change.

    Please clear your temp files:

    • Press the Windows key and "R" at the same time
    • 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" > Uninstall DAO.
    • At the end of the main uninstall, Revo will ask you which cleaning method you want to use. > Select "Advanced" > Browse
    • If "Remaining registration content found" is displayed > Select All > Delete > Next
    • When "Remaining Data and Folders" is displayed > Select All > Delete
    • Reinstall DAO. > Test.
