I have made an attempt to do every fix I can find.
I WANT TO PLAY! BUT I CAN"T
How hard is it to turn Origin back on for the rest of the week until you get this darn thing fixed. You are running Origin for the Mac people so you still own the site. PLEASE!
Same problem.. and I from Brazil..
wait, i don't understand when you said "Microsoft Visual C++..." - I did go into my apps and find my EA file but the option to repair was not available. My EA game is telling me "Something Went Wrong" with a big 500 as the background.. if you aren't familiar with what i'm trying to explain its cool lol

I wish I could get a solution, it has been a week and I can not get EA App to install. I have tried running as admin, dropping my firewall, downloading to different locals, updating windows and the C++, deleting everything that says Electronic arts (except the game folder that i changed to Sims4bk) from my computer and starting all over again. Every morning for 5 days.
Stupidly the EA App did down load to my windows7 12 year old computer. and I can play Sims 4 for a little while before it totally glitches out. but Curseforge does not support windows 7 so I have to play without mods.
Is there no other solution out there? It has been a week, guys! Surely there must be an answer to installing the EA App on windows 11 computer.
Same thing for me on windows 10. Fixes hven't worked and I can no longer access my games. Can you please keep Origin unlocked so we can use it until we are able to actually install the EA App. Thanks!
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
hello, guys since EA is not responsive, ill just post this here for for PC/Desktop users you may use this link https://origin-a.akamaihd.net/EA-Desktop-Client-Download/installer-releases/EADesktop-12.0.58.4866-2... to download EA APP. it works for me. I hope it will work for you guys too! Cheers! finally, I can play sims Apex and fifa.....
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.
