Hey @624p6gdcdi7o can you ensure that any security software on your system isn't blocking the EA app or the game installs.

I only have windows defender security I turned it off but it didn't make any difference still same issue.

Check your firewall also @624p6gdcdi7o to ensure that is not blocking anything.
Darko Turned of all the firewalls but still same issue is persisting.
@EA_Darko Any other suggestion or possible solution?

Hey @624p6gdcdi7o please keep in mind that we are human and as such we get our weekends and at time even get some additional time off.
AHQ is a global community focused on players helping players, if you require direct 121 support you can speak with our live support team.
Your DxDiag shows a number of errors, the best thing to do is go ahead and run System File Checker tool to repair missing or corrupted system files:https://support.microsoft.com/en-ie/help/929833/use-the-system-file-checker-tool-to-repair-missing-o...
If the issue continues please make a new Windows Admin account and try there.
Let us know how you get on.
Darko - Ho3n3r3 years agoNew Veteran@624p6gdcdi7o It's a shame that you are getting the usual run-around which is the norm here.
Anyway, I was trying it from the desktop icon and was getting the same error. I opened the app and I can open it from the in-app launcher with no issue.
Try that and see if it helps. @Ho3n3r Thanks for the advice but I'm unable to launch game from app because app considers game as not installed when I try to download game it's stuck in preparing although game is installed already.
@EA_Darko Followed all the instructions got this message Windows Resource protection found corrupt files and successfully repaired them. Also created new user still same issue. ☹️

Can you do an updated DxDiag @624p6gdcdi7o?
Darko - @624p6gdcdi7o I am having the same problem I hope someone can fine the answer, I've been locked out of my game for a week now
- @ynwgemini update: i got in. It looks like when i switched users on my windows laptop somehow i made myself a "standard user" instead of the admin to i went to switch it in my settings, restarted everything, and finally got into my game. I don't know if it will help you but it helped me.
