    Hey all, if seeing this issue you can generally fix it by starting to download any free EA game such as Apex Legends. Once the download has started stop it and then try your other games.

I was playing FIFA 21 and the game is just closed. It sayed you don't have the license, but I know I had because I have EA Play membership. I can't open the game and now I have to download the game, what I have on my computer, but I can't because the app is saying: There was a slight hiccup and we couldn't finish installing FIFA 21. Restart your PC and try again. I deleted the game and the EA app, and downloaded the EA app again. It sayed the same. I restarted the PC 3 times and nothing changes. What can I do?

        Same issue for me, I get the hiccup error when attempting to download A Way Out.  Tried using the Apex Legends download work around...same error message for that as well.  Looks like none of the solutions work for me.
