Every time I try to install it, it gives me this screen
I had the same issue and the following worked for me: I checked all the "Microsoft Visual C++..." under "Apps" and choosed "Repair" where it was available. I restarted my computer and then the installation went just fine.
I am currently pulling my hair out! I am so frustrated that the EA app doesn't work, god I miss Origin, please bring it back. I hope this solution finally makes this bloody app work or else I would just really give up for some time.
Hi, I have just solved this issue with a really simple fix from Jude2WorldTR - never posted on here before so no idea how to give them credit (sorry!) but I am just going to copy and paste their advice in case it helps others: "First of all, I created an "Electronic Arts" folder in Program Files. I then threw the "EADesktopInstaller.exe" file that we downloaded into this folder and started it as an administrator. And I managed to complete the installation. I can't start the program with the icon on the desktop, but it works when I go to the file location and start it as an administrator."
Sure this won't work for everyone, it's never that simple, but it did fix it for me after trying lots of other more complicated things to no avail. Good luck!
I have multiple, do I need to repair all of them? It would be a lot of restarting.
the amount of people with this problem for this long is ridiculous. i have same problem, it wont install on my new generation pc i bought specially for gaming but works fine on my laptop. fix ur damn app smh
Me too I’ve been trying to use it for sims 4
it just doesn’t work
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 !!
I DID THAT YESTERDAY, SPENT LAST 48 HOURS CONSTATELY RE APPYING. NOTHING!
I DID THAT TOO. NOTHING
