Re: How to fix Error Code EC:10000 or EC:10500 in EA app?

I'm having exactly the same issues. First noticed my games being all weird so had to uninstall and repair them ect but that didn't work. Now I can't even log into my account because of this error code. I've tried uninstalling EA but it can't even do that without crashing and not uninstalling correctly. The app recovery short cut doesn't actually work and also causes the app to crash.

  • I don't know if it will help anyone, but my VPN was causing this error message to pop up. 

    So, try turning off your VPN if you have one!
