That's great to hear @jocogeek72.
Darko Sorry for not seeing your reply first. And thank youu soo muuch! Your method worked well! At first, I still had the issue then I restarted my PC and now the issue is gone! Thanks a lot man.. now I want to try if I can inject my It Takes Two game files into the installation folder as I have backed up my game files before I uninstalled it

@Longstriderobinn @Budgie7455880, when you have enough drive space available, can you please try the following?
I have heard that this workaround might work for some:
- When in the EA Desktop app, search for Apex Legends and try to download the game- When it's downloading/installing, cancel the process
- Try to download the game that you initially wanted to download to see if you still get the issue
also let me know
- @thatguybadger thank you it worked for me i was debating just buying it
- @Poobah_Goatz Searched for a long time until I found this one https://answers.ea.com/t5/EA-General-Questions/Unable-to-play-purchased-game-Getting-Error-Message/m-p/11350249
"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.
Darko" - @MrFabulousso This worked thx
- @EA_Leeuw Indeed, this fixed the problem. I can now see that the old games in other drives can be played as well without the need downloading again. Thanks a lot.
- @EA_Leeuw Thank you that method just worked perfectly 🙂
I've been using Xbox Game Pass on my PC for a pretty long time without issue. Now, however, I can't get any of my EA Sports games that have previously been installed to launch. It wants me to download them again. I tried that on my laptop and it didn't do any good.
I get this message 'There was a slight hiccup and we couldn't finish installing ____'. Nothing does any good. Restart. I uninstalled the EA Sports app and reinstalled it. Nothing.
I actually bought the Battlefield 2042 for PC. So, I own the PC version. It's not a trial from Game Pass. I have several others that don't work either.
My Xbox Game Pass games from Microsoft do still work.
