What helped me was performing a "clear cache": https://help.ea.com/en/help/faq/clear-cache-to-fix-problems-with-your-games/
From the EA Desktop app
- Select the three dashes in the far-left corner of EA Desktop.
- Scroll to Help.
- Click App recovery.
- Select Clear cache.
Hey, clearing cache has not done anything for me. EA was working fine yesterday and now all of a sudden its 'taking a while to load'. Any other solutions that may have worked for other people?
Cheers

I have this same issue every day, the way I fix it is to first open the EA App, and if I see the error open Task Manager and end every EA task. That usually fixes it for me.
Otherwise, just keep the EA app installer downloaded and uninstall and reinstall the EA app if the above doesn't work. Those are the only two fixes really

if you're still facing the issue try :
fully Close EA app from your tray then do this
Task manager > Processes > EA background services > End task

Quick note, the icon is not the typical EA logo, so just look at the name of the program to find it on the task list.

I just did this before trying the uninstall/repair solution & my games are once again showing up. It'd been giving me that error for the past 3 days. Thanks so much! I have so many Sims to check on.

Thanks, I was having an issue with it today and really wanted to update the sims 4 since a new patch came out today. This trick worked, so I'm glad. Thanks again.
