PC EA app - "The app crashed unexpectedly" or "Background Services Crashed"

I have not been able to launch the EA app since yesterday,  It was working before that but all of a sudden it just stopped working for no apparent reason.  This is extremely frustrating.  I tried to uninstall it and reinstall it but even that didn't work because it wouldn't let me uninstall the app.  I just got an error message.  So now I'm just stuck with an app that doesn't work and I can't even uninstall it.
