Hi Barry,
Thank you for replying, though you didn't read my post, as my screenshot shows that i'm logged in successfully, and I described how I have cleared the EA app cache.
These ideas don't help with my objective, though. I want to BYPASS the EA app. If anybody who isn't from EA can advise how to do this - perhaps through a game mod - I would be grateful!
For anyone else reading who is in the same position, I found a short-term solution!
I navigated to the EA App folder location, and ran the EA Updater exe. You can find this at the following location:
C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\EA Desktop\EA Desktop\EAUpdater.exe
This forces an update, which solved the problem, at least, temporarily. Today is a new day, and the app already stopped showing my library until I followed the process again and forced another update.
Here's an idea for you, EA:
Let us launch without the app! We own these games! You have no right to withhold access, accidentally or not!
The EA App has successfully managed to lock me out totally, so I have no access to any PAID FOR content.
This started at the end of last year, but after many complaints, they re-activated the Origin Login, and all went back to normal.
Then a few weeks later, they tried the force EA App upgrade again, without fixing it, and the same problems came back.
Many of us found a way around that by legally modifying an XLS file, and that stopped the EA App pop up from appearing in the Origin Login.
Then EA saw people had done this, so found a way to disabled that, but still without fixing the useless EA App.
Great Company, they monitor these Forums to check on how people find ways to make the Games work, and block that.
But they ignore the many reports of problems with the EA App.
It's as if a Competitor has acquired EA, and doesn't want anyone playing EA Games, so theirs sell better.
If anyone has a better explanation, please correct me.
