I’m begging you guys to help me.

I have packs and I really don’t want to lose them. I clicked on my EA shortcut and this keeps popping up no matter how much I repair the app. I read to uninstall and reinstall the app but the EA app never was in “installed apps” I thought that was normal bc I’m not tech savvy. I could still play it with my shortcut and I’ve been doing that for 2 years. I need help fixing this please.

    Hey m8nutfvgnzn8​

    Thanks for taking the time to share what you've already tried to fix this. If you haven't already, please try the troubleshooting steps listed on this page to address EA App installation difficulties, particularly by clearing out the EA App program files before reinstalling. If you tried the troubleshooting methods and the issue remains, here are a few more things we can try that worked for other players on the forums: 

    • Check out the troubleshooting methods on this page for games that won't load, install, or download in EA App
    • Navigate to the program files of EA App (C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\EA Desktop\EA Desktop) and click EADesktop.exe
    • Copy EA Desktop contents to your desktop and launch EALauncher.exe from there
      • If this doesn't work initially, try re-installing EA App and then launching it
    • Install EAappInstaller.exe, delete the entire "Electronic Arts" folder, open into the app installer and press "Repair"

    Let us know how that goes, thanks!
