Origin is running.
api is blocked
Origin webhelperservice not running.
whats the next step i have to do, to load the game library ?
any idea ?
how big is your library
I only have 5 games in mine (so hardly a 'typical' user with many missing games in the EA APP) and whatever it is in my case, they do show.
You could try restarting origin.
I assume the popup showed before for you?
you could try undoing the api block and letting origin load the games entries to your cache before blocking it and launching origin again after quiting.
if your origin says something has gone wrong or is blank. Then your origin may be offline.
if you're trying to block the api, it should only be api1 subsite blocked.
but if you unblock it and don't run the origin web helper service and the popup doesn't show, then it would be the web helper bringing the popup.
NOTE: Either way, the popup has a delayed response and you could actually click to your game libary before it stops you doing anything else. So I still believe that it's being deliver from an address somewhere through either the origin service or client itself.

Guys, I found a fix for me anyway, it was actually through the EA APP but not launching with EA launcher, but EA Desktop instead as admin.
You should open the EA APP as admin from EA Desktop NOT EA Launcher for me this is the path "C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\EA Desktop\EA Desktop\EADesktop.exe" Note that if you opened from the shortcut (unless you created a shortcut for the above path), it will launch from this path "C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\EA Desktop\EA Desktop\EALauncher.exe" which will not work (at least for me).

I don't care about whether to use Origin or EA App but since "upgrading" to EA App, Apex legends doesn't load. Tried repairing, uninstalling, reinstalling, clearing cache, I just keep getting the same error message about something being wrong their end and to try again later. Origin just worked fined.

Sweet, I look forward to that possibility when my update has finished.

that's how mine is...
I dunno
I'm certain the popup is a webpage
but what address needs to be blocked is only something I'm half sure.
In my case, the EA App does install, but obviously still broken with missing entitlements.
The EA APP has been in developement for 3+ years, and yet. Still worse than origin.
The effort they wasted on that piece of crud could've easily been used to upgrade origin for whatever they needed it to do.
