First, please go to C:\ProgramData\EA Desktop\Logs and send the EABackgroundService.log just to make sure if it's actually the same problem as mine.
Anyway, I solved my problem. I don't know if it's a combination of a couple of things I did, or only the last thing, so I'm going to post everything to be sure.
Starting from the last thing, I wento to C:\ProgramData and into Properties>Security>Advanced>Change permissions and ticked the "Replace all child objects..."
Before this, I actually noticed a couple of groups already in there that were duplicates without a heritage, so I removed them.
And that's it. Now I'm happily downloading Mirror's Edge, The Sims 4 and so on.
Thanks for the reply! So, I actually already done all this, but just for good luck I did it again.
And... somehow messed up the entire Installation.
From the start: I tried clearing the cache via App Recovery, then uninstalling and reinstalling through the Xbox App, all done with UAC set to minimum.
Then I tried doing all those things in the same order with UAC set to maximum.
After uninstalling EA Desktop, it asked me to restart, and so I did before reinstalling it from the Xbox App.
And then this happened:
I have no idea how to react to this, everything is missing, but it's actually there. I'm so confused. Using the App Recovery and turning down the UAC brings it back to life.
But putting aside this, it still does not work. (Battlefront II, which I own, it's downloading right now without problems)

I also tried installing games from very possibile way: from the xbox app, from EA Desktop, from my collection, from the Browse section...
I just tried deleting all files from ProgramData (expect Origin/LocalContent and EA Desktop/Logs) and from the Local folder in AppData but nothing has changed.
So apparently my last reply was marked as spam and deleted?
Edit: my first reply apparently just came back to life. I'll leave though the TL;DR just in case.
TL;DR:
First, thanks for the reply,
I did all those things, with UAC levels high and low. Nothing changed. I also tried to delete everything possible EA/Origin related in Local and in ProgramData. Nothing changed.
I'll attach the log but it always says the same thing. Something about permissions to create the folder for the download manifest. But since it only happens with EA Play games and not with the games I own, I don't really know what the problem is.
I've attached to the reply the EABackgroundService.log.
