Re: EA Desktop APP can't detect already installed games

EA Client just bad.

Installing Apex legends whole day, info says 22 Gb, installer says 67 Gb and at end 80 Gb taken and game not even started.

Failed to finish install due to already installed VC, did App recovery as support suggests, restarted client and now asks to redownload from start while cannot recognize 100 % downloaded game in folder. cannot start the game as says the game is probably owned by someone else or some other similar atrocity.

Bravo....

    With this new EA app (looks a lot better, btw), has anyone been able to find a way to add an existing installation? I've got Apex installed on another drive and I don't want to go through the time to re-download it. The previous Origin app was able to do it, where's the feature on this new app?

    Don't tell me this entire EA app was re-written from scratch? Dev's could have at least re-used the code for moving a game or finding an existing installation...
