I literally just fixed mine today. Thank Goodness!!! The fix that worked for me is
I created a new user on my pc as an admin. logged out of my original account and logged into the new user, downloaded EA App and installed. After installation was successful, I logged out of the new user and back into my original account and was able to open EA App, sign-in. Note, I had to create 3 user accounts before I got it to install. I did not add any password to the users just made them admin account. I hope this works for everyone else. I did not have to do anything extra but see which admin account it would install under as I believe it's something in the background stopping EA from installing on EA known device accounts. You will also have to reinstall all of your games as well. This is some BS but happy to have it installed.
it has been weeks now, is there any solution to this problem??? how are they launching an app that does not even work properly? hello EA im so frustrated

I've tried literally everything in this thread including this and it gets most of the way done and starts rolling back, then says application had to end prematurely so im still no further forward. I sent ea info on this via email and they responded with what game was i trying to install, Like read the damn email and youll find out its nothing to do with a game. Then they marked it as fixed and solved literally minutes after replying to me, All whilst happy to take money out my bank account for a sub i cant even use.

The same here from Berlin. Windows 10 64 bit, EA Desktop App reports "Something went wrong" during installation. No tip here helps. Not even repairing the MS Visual C++ installations. And going back to Origin is not possible. Can't understand how EA forces their game buyers to use this new app first and then doesn't work on solving the problems. Outrageous.

its been 2 months for me without being able to even download their app despite following every tutorial available to fix it. I'm at the point where I'm about to just buy a new pc because i can't access ANY of the games ive spent so much money and time on . its so incredibly frustrating that EA prices things so high then can't even make the games run . I don't understand why they moved away from origin, they broke something that didnt need fixing !!
