Hey everyone,
Many thanks for all the reports.
Is it maybe possible that you own multiple copies of the same game, but via different launchers? Let's say a copy of Star Wars Squadrons PC via the EA app and a copy of Star Wars Squadrons via Epic.
And if you own a copy of the same game(s) via multiple launchers, have you installed both? If that is the case, this can indeed cause issues.
Our suggestion is to try the following:
- Uninstall all Star Wars Squadrons installations (especially the ones installed through Origin or the EA app),
- Reboot the PC,
- Install & launch Star Wars Squadrons through Epic,
- It's important that the games bought from Epic are installed through Epic and launched from Epic for the first time.
Let us know how things go. Also, screenshots from the EA app will help (e.g., does the EA app show that the game is installed after the first launch attempt from Epic?).
