This works for me. Copy paste from forum.
Have a Microsoft account with EA Pass/Xbox Gamepass. Have an EA Play game downloaded through xbox game pass and a shortcut icon on the desktop. Log out of any relevant accounts excluding Xbox.
- Reboot PC(to clear any running EA processes that are probably running and their data).
- Attempt to run game downloaded through xbox game pass via icon.
- select "keep me logged in" EA Login Screen
- Login via Xbox button
- Select "Keep me logged in" on microsoft login screen (this may not do anything)
- Complete Login
- Reboot PC(to clear any running EA processes and their data).
- Attempt to run game again
This is great! Thank you for sharing!
Cheers!
Is there a solution if you have an "old" Email account login?
I have the same issue, and it is really annoying. I guess not more people are reporting it because it's even more annoying to write about it in some forum, investing even more time than simply looking up the login password and email again. Personally, I have a small file on the desktop to copy and paste the info to, so I don't have to type it every time.
It's these little things that make the difference and determine the acceptance of your launcher. If I don't have to, I don't even bother logging into the EA app. By the way, this was also the case with the older Origin app. I've since replaced my hardware, including the hard drive, so I assume it is fair to say it must be the software. Steam, GoG, Epic, etc.work just fine.
Nonetheless, have nice weekend 🙂
