I am having the same issue on Mac. The EA app also asks me to enter my computer password every time I open it, because "the app wants to make changes to my computer."
Community ManagerHey @Jessycaz,
If you have everything background-service-related settings turned off, it is working as designed that you need to enter your Mac user account username/password to launch the client. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be another way for the client to start its services otherwise because they require certain permissions.
@Jessycaz @TwiceEveryMoment, since you two mentioned experiencing the exact same issue, could you please confirm again if every background-service-related setting in the app is turned off for you, share an EA app Error Reporter ID here in the thread, and include the EA app logs please?
Community ManagerHey @TwiceEveryMoment @Jessycaz,
Giving the above a bump. 🙂
I am having the same exact issue as the other two gamers. I can confirm I have all the same issues as @TwiceEveryMoment and I can also confirm that every background-service-related setting in the app is turned off. I have attached the .rar file for the Logs... I hope I created them correctly, I apologize if I didn't get everything, it was a tad confusing.
