Reinstall didn't work. Also cleared cache and hit repair. Still getting the error message.

Hey @tsostaric
Make sure to add the game on the EA app to your Windows firewall and antivirus exclusions list.
Additionally, you can change UAC Controls within Windows.
SpoilerTry lowering the User Access Control settings
UAC is a Windows security feature that helps protect your device by preventing applications from gaining Administrator access to your operating system.
We recommend re-enabling UAC as soon as you’re finished troubleshooting.
