Re: Why am I getting forced to install EA App?

The above XML File modification is still working fine for me.

Basically, I just click the Game's icon on my Windows 10 Pro Desktop, and a simple screen pops up saying logging in to Origin, that goes, and the Game then comes straight up.

When I exit, I am left with the usual Origin screen, so it must be loading up as the Game fires up.

I think that's what it always did, but cannot say I really paid any attention to it until the EA App forced upgrade pitched up to spoil it all.

I've saved a copy of both the original XML and also the modified XML, in case I need either.

If the EA App upgrade pops up again, it will probably just mean that I need to copy the modified XML back in again.

So far, so good, and that has not been needed.

When the Origin screen was up, I did disable anything I could see that may upset my little apple cart, so I have disabled Updates, Notifications, and so on.

I just play solo, so that may not be workable for those who enjoy multi player Games across the web.

I do not have that file. On Windows 11
