After 2 years they still did not fix this ???? Does EA ever test their crap ? Jedi survivor is also in beta state.

It's so pathetic.EA can't get the * app to work on Windows 11. What kind of * excuse is that? A lot of people need windows 11, and I expect a big company like this to at least make the app work for windows 10-11.This is just sad EA I can't even update Apex because my whole PC with 32GB of ram will die.I'm sorry but you guys just suck. 2 years in, a bug this big and you can't get it working....Unbelievable

I am having the same issue. I clicked into EA App and just after a few seconds my computer crashed. After rebooting I realized that "EA Background Service" ate all my RAM(I am on a 32GB RAM device) and crashed my computer.&nbsp;
