    Thank you for your respond, i figured that background service doesn't start long time ago and i tried all those methods but nothing worked, if you know any other solutions i will be so thankful.

    keep in mind that I bought games on Ea app from long time and now has been a year can't have a access to them because of this issue.

      zakielouafi​, can you check and see if this file exists on your PC?
      C:\ProgramData\EA Desktop\Logs\EABackgroundService.log
