Re: EA app Fails to Remember "Keep me signed in" Option

it doesnt work however i unstick that keep me signed in button. its been broken more than 4 hours now..

Could someone tell me where in the app the "Keep me signed in" option is? I cannot find it and googling just yields thousands of threads about this option not working

EDIT: It is an option when you sign in. So if you are already signed in, you will not see it. You'll have to reconnect to the internet to be able to play. It's very dumb, since the issue is you cannot login due to already being logged in.

4 hours? Been about 4 months for me. I also love how I can't play games I paid money for unless I have the EA app. Who doesn't love being forced to do something you didn't want after paying money?

Have encountered this one

It's never worked for me. Pretty upset that I can't just play games without being on the internet....

same issue here

I have the same issue and I have opened a support case its time  EA got off its * and fixed this issue. 

how many times do they need to be told its a problem ?

I was having this problem on my new laptop as well.  Then I remembered that Windows fast start up breaks a lot of stuff.  I turned that off and fixed this issue for me.  Hope that helps.

Windows 11 here. stupid app won’t stay logged in whether I check the box, uncheck the box, use an emailed code, anyhing.

have pretty much the same thing, whenever I try and press "keep me signed in" after I typed my password in - it always loads the origin from the start meanings have to type in the password all over again. and then for example if I close sims - stop playing, and open the app again - it will ask em to type in the password again, really annoying, I'm sure I'm not the only one with this kind of problem.. really needs help with that, although, I don't really have a problem with typing the password, but it keeps happening constantly - it would've been much much better if I just didn't have to do that EACH AND SINGLE time I try to play the game. does anyone know how to solve this..? maybe there's a different app other than origin that I can download so that it works betters?

Meanwhile I hate the EA App ! Since Months I had do enter my Login and "Keep me sign in" every day or second day doesnt work.

Yep so if they cant fix a simple things like this It might be time to unistall it 

Same happen for me. Rei stall does not help. Adjust permissions on files does not help eiver. Conclusion: ea soft is peace of c..p and devs should take cources to improve their skills. 

Reinstalling the EA App as administrator solved my issue. 

Go to C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts in Windows File Explorer.

Right-click the EA Desktop folder, select Properties.

There is a "-" symbol over the Read-Only checkbox, uncheck this, Apply and click Continue when prompted for Admin actions.

Be sure to log in after these actions are completed

It seemed to me like it was having trouble saving the settings and I think the Read-Only file mode settings were causing the problem. Don't know why EA installed it like this as default. Most likely something wrong with their install package configuration.

Really * tired of this crap, I don't want to log-in just to play a * game, worse the app doesn't auto-fill in any information whatsoever so you have to completely type out your email and you have to memorize your * password. So sick of this *. 

Fantastic! It works now!  Thank you mate!

BUT!! How hard would it be for EA to just post what you did?

Super simple thing, but no one, clearly, couldn't give less of a F at EA.
No reply or comment needed for my statement, just for EA staff to feel embarrassed.
