"EA is not responding" Error at Start (Feb. 2026)

Same thing is happening to me right now.

Same here

I have this too. God **bleep** annoying when I want to buy a game. Do you even want to sell games EA?

I was going to buy the new Sims 4 pack but I guess I won't be able to today.

The desktop icon turned white also
