3 years ago@Estella_lilith it sounds like there are leftover files from Origin and the App is conflicting. Try the following:
Uninstall Origin and the EA App.
Delete Windows Temp Files
- First, make sure you close as many programs as you can
- Press the Windows key + R, go into the file explorer
- Type in %temp%, and hit Enter
- Delete everything it allows you to delete
- Reboot the PC
Optional Registry clean-up
- install CCleaner (it's free) from here
- Run Registry cleaner
- Click review selected issues
- Do you want to back up? No
- Click fix all selected issues
Once all is done, reinstall the EA App and run the exe file as admin.

@alexandrosdallas Will you take a screenshot of the error you see?

I can, but you should not need that.. It iss literally a message box saying that origin is required in order to play the game. I get this message shortly after the splash screen of the anticheat. I use the EA app and have the game through Xbox Game pass
