Re: [Steam] - Dragon Age Inquisition won't launch with EA app

I'm getting the error "Save failed due to insufficient space" which then asks me to overwrite a save file (WHICH THERE ISN'T ONE AS EA CLOUD CORRUPTED EVERYTHING AND DELETED THEM ALL)

This is of course after attempting running as admin

updating graphics,

fresh reinstall

turning off 'read only' on ALL the folders and files associated with the game.

The only way the game launches is in compatibility mode for WINDOWS EIGHT... YES.. Windows 8.

Good god this is awful, been happily playing for 50 hours on steam and now all it does (without compatibility) is open the EA app and then nothing.. the app just sits their taunting me doing NOTHING.

I can;t repair it via EA app, steam is fully verified and had a fresh reinstall last night, still the same errors.

1) I can't open unless compatibility with WINDOWS 8

2) When it does open with W8 compatibility it goes '"Save failed due to insufficient space, please overwrite a save" - as mentioned above... EA cloud deleted them all already without me asking so their isn;t any.. and I have 560GB free storage on this SSD so it's not my end.

  • A new solution I stumbled into for anyone else still having trouble launching DAI is to set Origin to run as admin and compatibility mode.  That did the trick for me and now DAI launches just fine with Steam, Origin, and Frosty.  Perhaps it'd work for the EA app as well, but I'm hesitant to mess with things after finally getting it to work again.
