Re: locate installed game ea app

@Cassinni4 

In the EA app, click on the 3 bar menu at top left, Settings, Download.

There you can edit the install location.

Exit the app, reboot and retry at that point.

Thanks.

  • @EA_Barry Thank you for your answer, but he is asking for EA app recognizing an already installed game. Not setting up a new install location.
    I remember having Origin an option like this, as does every other game launcher i am using.
    Does EA App have an option like this? I was trying moving the already installed game files into the new one EA App is creating when downloading the game again, but it doesn't recognize them as already downloaded.
