Re: [INFO REQUEST] Error Code: EC:10005 In EA app

Issue:
I’ve been unable to open the EA App on my MacBook Air since July 2025. Every time I try to launch it, I get the same error message: EC:10005. The app has never opened successfully since then.

What I’ve tried:
I’ve searched online (and read a bunch previous report made here) and attempted every suggested fix I could find. I’ve been retrying these solutions every now and then since July, but none of them have worked. Here are the solutions I’ve already tried (that I remember of):

  • Cleared the EA App cache
  • Checked the firewall settings
  • Reinstalled the EA App
  • Tried reinstalling with the firewall disabled
  • Tried installing and launching the app on three different Wi-Fi networks
  • Deleted leftover folders in ~ /Library/Application Support/Electronic Arts
  • Performed a full restart of the Mac

System information:

  • Device: MacBook Air (2023, M2 chip)
  • Connection: Private Wi-Fi (no VPN)

I’ve been trying to fix this since July with no luck, and I’m honestly running out of ideas. I’d really appreciate any guidance to get this fixed.
