    None of these solutions will work for me as I can't actually get into the app to do any of them. The error comes when I'm still trying to log in, so I am unable to view cache or any of the other solutions that involve opening the app.

    • Are you using an internal or external drive? internal
    • Are you using an HDD or SSD? SSD
    • Date this issue started (is it still happening?) It's been happening on and off since I downloaded the game.
    • Any other errors? Yes, constant issues getting the game to even open. Constant issues connecting to EA servers when the game finally does launch. I'm able to play tons of other games with zero connection issues, this is only with FIFA.
    • If possible, share a Screenshot or Clip:
    • Attach a DxDiag
    • Attach the EA App Error Report ID: I get both EC 10500 and EC 10000 sometimes when I open the game from Steam. When I open from the EA App, it just says it can't connect to servers and never launches the game.
  • Does this work for someone who tried to reinstall the app, and can't even do that?
