UPDATE - Work around:
After opening C:\Program Files\, I manually deleted the Electronic Arts folder (only the EA Desktop folder was in it). I had to also manually close EA Desktop background services from Task Manager to allow the folder to delete. Once removed, I was able to re-run the Add/Remove Programs uninstaller for EA Desktop, which now completed successfully and removed itself from the list of installed programs.
@PyroDrake1134 thank god i saw this!!! I have been trying to uninstall the damn app due to a 500 error. said something mysterious was happening preventing me from playing games only. Waited for days. cleared cache, app repair and even tried to believe ea reps advice it was a network issue. last option I found was to deleta app. Saw this thread, saw your post, and it was because the background service was running. THANK YOU!!! I love you man!!! Think i will stick with Origin for a while.
