Uninstalling Games in EA Desktop doesnt remove from Xbox App?

Hey all,

I have a few games installed on EA Desktop that also show as installed in the Xbox App which is connected (as I have game pass ultimate)

When uninstalling from EA Desktop though, they dont disappear from the Xbox App list of installed games, and it seems to think they are still installed.

I uninstalled them using the EA Desktop built in uninstaller. Anyone know how to fix this and get them removed from the other list too?

  • Hey, I had the same problem and got it fixed yesterday, so they dont show up in the XBOX App anymore.

    First I started to download the games (BFV and TF2) that were wrongfully listed as Installed through the EA App and immediately canceled the download.

    This worked pretty much instantly for BFV but not TF2, so I used the "App Recovery" from the EA App which solved the problem from TF2 as well.

    (Don`t know if it is relevant but I had the XBOX App open while doing the steps above.)

    To find the "App Recovery":
    Click the three lines in the top left corner of the EA App

    There is a "Help" section, which includes the "App Recovery" option

    Hope this works for you as well, but I can`t promise it 🙂.
