Re: Can't set install location for EA Play games

I created a new folder on my D:\ drive called "EA Games", then I boot op EA Desktop, select the game that I want to download and then select D:\EA Games to download games in. 

If you're having issues with setting a custom location for your games, then this might be a good way to go about it.

    @Rolox7 

    Put the exact path (For example: D:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games ) for the folder you want to use as game folder in the "Folder" text bar > Select Folder.

  • THere is no blank page any more and install location can't be changed even from the downloads section of the EA app.

    @EA_Jason same problem. In the settings menu I cannot select the folder. Its just blank for the folder tree. This is a bug in the app. Please report this to development. Thanks. Make some more testing on EA!

    I have reported it @jassottelu and the team is aware. 

    For now I would suggest using this topic for issues with setting the install location. I'll lock this one to prevent duplicate topics.
