EA Desktop on Windows 7

Will upcoming EA Desktop support Win 7?

P.S. And what's wrong with Origin? the name is better and looks are different from Steam/EGS/GOG (EA Desktop looks like them).

    Can you just make a version of EA Desktop that works for Windows 7 for a little while? Just until everyone has moved to Windows 8 or Higher, like I have stated I am STUCK on WIn 7 and am currently waiting for my brother to install Windows 10 sometime soon on my computer, it's very irritating to know I signed up for this BETA and I cannot install it on Win 7 because of some bias person having an issue with Win 7 not being supported, yes Windows 7 is DED, but a good antivirus and anti malware program goes well hand in hand when currently stuck on Win 7. I know because I have Avira Prime and Malwarebytes on my computer and both are Up To Date, neither Avira or Malwarebytes has dropped support for Win 7 and they've kept me safe ever since support ended early this year.

    why you guys still using windows 7 , from now most of new games wanna use DirectX 12 and DX12 is only for windows 10.

    so i give you some solution:

    Windows 10 Enterprise is a stable of windows 10,

    but if you wanna some new OS like windows 7 stable , so you need to install "Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC" this version of windows never get a feature update Automatically, and this version (LTSC) dont have Microsoft store. and i test and use LTSC its a very stable of windows 10 exist

    1. 7 has DX12
    2. You can't purchase a copy of Enterprise LTSC in any official way so yeah.

    "Instead, we invite participants to try out the Beta"
    My apologies, but it didn't look like an invitation to me. Trying to run a game is automatically triggering the download of the new EA app Beta, which forcefully uninstalled Origin from my computer. And now I have an installed game, managed from Steam, which won't launch anymore due to "an error on our end caused your launch to fail". A very annoying bug which EA doesn't seem to be caring much about.


  • Here we are in 2023 and the EA App still is going strong for Windows & and I personally hope that support keeps going as I don't really have the ability to buy any of my Window 7 game like my copy of the Command & Conquer first 10 year collection and besides the remastered collection doesn't have any of the Red Alert 2 collection
