Re: How to Fix EA app Error Code EC:10001

Ready to play the sims 4 I cleared my cache on the EA app and it would not load, I restarted the app signed in and it said pathway does not exist. So I uninstalled the EA app and and tried to repair the app, restarted my computer as it suggested and not when I sign in I get an error code.....EC:10001

    Hey kendramjf​

    Sorry to hear that EA App hasn't been launching properly. 

    EC:10001 is typically attributed to a routing issue between your home network and EA's servers. Because the error is ISP-related, clearing the cache or repairing the app itself won't help. A temporary workaround is to sign in using mobile data or another network to sign in. Let us know if you've already tried that, or if you haven't and doing so worked.

    To avoid running into this issue long-term, you'll want to contact your ISP and report that certain services aren't correctly authenticated from your public IP. Thanks!

    Okay I tried using my mobile device, but I clearly don't know what I am doing because I paired my laptop and mobile phone but did not see anywhere to log on to the EA app.

    One user said they used another vpn and again not being computer savvy, I don't know how to do that.

    No worries kendramjf​

    We can focus on the mobile data method first! It sounds like you've successfully connected to mobile data, but to be sure, here are the general steps to try:  

    1. Turn on hotspot in your phone settings 
    2. On your device, navigate to your network/Wi-Fi settings and connect to your mobile hotspot
    3. Launch the EA App and log in with your EA account credentials as prompted. 
      - If you aren't prompted, you may already be logged in. Please check whether your username or avatar is in the top-right corner to confirm. 
    4. Launch the game you want to play


    Let us know if that worked or not, along with any errors you've encountered. Thanks!
