Try an app recovery.
In EA app > Click on the 3 lines in the top left corner > Help > App recovery > Clear cache
thanks for suggestion but I've tried this previously. Also deleted the whole thing and reinstalled, all the obvious trouble-shooting first and second steps. Just gonna buy EA games from steam store til EA updates their app with a fix. Been this way for over a year though, not holding my breath.
EA app is still required, even if you by the games on Steam.
Try running the EA app as administrator for one time > apply the setting > Test.
I also posted same:
now i see this post. I think the EA CrApp has been programmed by ChatGPT, the code for the App has been copy & pasted somewhere in the prison of Xinjiang.
It is unbeliverable how the EA people think they can just missuse people's free time for typing in login credentials into their broken app..
VEry funny
I've got just now again a passwort+username entry (i hate this so much, this is like EA make me to their password-donkey) and after this my game was not in the installed state.
"Mytserious" i expect such statements from theistic guys but not from a software company. What is a "mysterious error" and why this mystic thing is preventing me from using a paid game????
I dont have much respect form software developers which rant somethign about mystic, this shows they don't have their stuff under control.
It has worked for quite some time, then suddenly 2-3 weeks ago it started for me as well.
As said earlier, navigate to EALauncher.exe and have it Run this program as an Administrator in the Compatibility tab, worked like a charm.
My path: C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\EA Desktop\EA Desktop
