How to Make EA Background Service Shutdown Automatically

After recent updates to the EA app, the EA Background service finally shuts down automatically. However, you have to turn off some settings in the EA app to make it turn off automatically.

1- Turn off "Application updates" setting

2- Turn off "Open the EA app automatically on startup" setting

3- Turn off "Update games automatically" setting

4- Turn off "Enable background downloads" setting

After turning off all these settings, the EA background service will turn off after some time automatically.
