Unable to play purchased game. Getting Error Message "There was a slight hiccup"

Hi everyone:

I have EA Play through Xbox Game Pass for PC, but when I try to download Squadrons I get this message:

Unable to install
There was a slight hiccup and we couldn’t finish installing STAR WARS™: Squadrons. Restart your PC and try again.

I've tried restarting my PC, relogging, uninstalling and installing the app... Nothing has worked. I don't have this problem with other games.

However, I think I know what is going on. The app says "You own this game" when I do not, while for every other EA Play games it says "Included with your EA Play membership". I gifted Squadrons to a friend months ago, so I suspect that's what causing this bug.

Is there anything I can do other than wait for an update? I'd love to be able to play Squadrons.

Thanks!

I'm having this issue as well but for every game, including ones that it says I own. 

Can't install games via EA desktop

It's says:

"Unable to install There was a slight hiccup and we couldn’t finish installing Game Name Unavailable. Restart your PC and try again."

Had try many ways, just didn't work.

and the same problem happen in Origin.😠

Not just EAplay's games, the game i bought have the same problem. 

UAC, ADMINS, change language, clean cache, blablablabla. DEPRESSED FAIL.

I had the same issue with Fifa 21, tried everything that was suggested by support, then I finally stumbled upon a forum where someone said that using a VPN was suggested to him and he had not tried it. So with little expectation I connected to a US VPN and voila! it worked, and just a FYI, once the download has started you can disconnect the VPN and it will continue to download. Hope this works for you too.

Finally, i find my solution:

Change install folder to your harddisk's main partition , problem solved.

My PC has 2 harddisk, separate C D E F G H.

C G H are main partition,D E F are logic partition.

When install folder set to DEF, 100% install fail.

If you don't konw which is main partition, try install in C, see if it would work.

Hope EA can fix it !

Hello there.

On the german board i don't get help with this problem :'(

I changed the install folder to another Hard Disk drive. I changed it to the main partition, i cleared the caches, i reinstalled EA desktop and more...

I can't install Command and Conquer Remastered Collection and i become the errormessage with the "hiccup"...

On origin i have no permission to this game or i have to buy it... (Xbox Gamepass only)

EA Will not allow me to play 2 games I have downloaded, here is scenario. 
1. Went to Xbox live and got the game pass
2. Got ea play and got my accounts linked
3. Downloaded 2 games on Ea play
4. Got to play them on the same day
5. next day I no longer have access to the game and I have to re-download the games
6. I have the games downloaded in my folder.

What can I do to fix this issue before I uninstall EA forever.
