    Hello! My issue was fixed during a live support chat. They asked me to try downloading a free to play game. Just download any free game on EA dekstop app (like apex legends), then cancel download and try installing other games. It fixed my problem! Hope it helps.

    Found this on another forum and it works. Hopefully EA will fix there stuff though.

    @thatguybadger Thanks!!!!! I tried evrything suggested before this, USA VPN, Install directly to C. But this worked for me. I began to download Apex Legends (actually I have it in Steam haha), cancelled download and then proceeded to download It takes two with my game pass suscription.

    This worked for me!
