  • @holger1405I don't actually know what the rep did. I told him my problems and the solutions I'd tried. He had me reinstall Origin, which of course didn't work. I told him I couldn't open the app or uninstall it and he told me to delete the files manually, which I didn't think would work but tried anyway since it worked for Coryachi. He put me on hold for ten minutes and then came back and said he was pushing the problem up the chain.

    EDIT:  A tool on the uninstall post worked!  Thank you so much!  And with a clean install, I was finally able to open DAI.  Sweet, sweet game screen, I thought I'd never see you again 🙌

    Still does not work for me. This was not an issue before being forced to install the EA app, so this is NOT an issue with my computer, it is NOT an issue with my install. this is 100% an issue with the EA app so EA needs to fix it. 

    In the world of electronics, components are required by the FCC to not cause interference with other electronic devices. There should be a similar Protocall in place for software. Software should not cause interference with other software.

    i'm having the same issue and i've tried absolutely everything i can think of to fix it, as well as every suggestion i've found on various forums. still no go. this is incredibly frustrating.

  • @alendrex What finally worked for me was forcing the uninstall of the auto-update and then doing a clean install from the file that has msi in the name of it. I don't know why it worked, but that's what worked for me.

    @leiascully42 

    Good to hear! Have fun gaming.

    @JassperK 

    There is no doubt that EA app is part of the problem, but if you don't troubleshot your system you might wait a very long time for a solution.
    EA can't access your system and fix the incompatibility, and whether they can apply a fix in the app is unknown.

    Please preform a clean boot and test the Game in clean boot mode.

    Make sure your virus scanner and other security software and also Afterburner and similar software is disabled.
