Windows PC EA app not launching
EA App not starting on windows 10. Try to reinstall, but this doesn`t help, app not working, just nothing happens after clicking on app, and if i go in the task manager the only think that i see is E...
Wait so you just installed original again and it didn’t come up with the ‘install the EA app’ screen?! You’re so lucky!
Yes, that screen comes up ... but only after a few seconds (to minutes). So, if you're fast enough, you can start the game you want, and the "please switch to EA-App" won't bother you anymore (because it's running in background, and you can't see it while gaming) 😁.
The game itself will work fine once it's started, so...
I need to try this ASAP I hope it works
Good luck to you.
For me, it works perfectly.
Give word if it has helped!
I gave it a go but sadly the pop-up appears too quickly. However I saw someone suggest downloading an older version of origin (around 2021) and it worked perfectly! I can finally play my games again after like 3 weeks 😅
And now: spread the word! 👍
The only problem is that it’s not the most recent version, so I don’t have the infants update, but hey I’m just happy I can actually play the game I paid for again
This worked for me aswell. I downloaded the september 2021 version of origin. Installed it with the EA app on my pc. Dont tick the box that updates your client. Games updated itself, and i was able to play.
Well, I had uninstalled all game data previously to see if that helped (it didn't...); so, Origin made the recent update in background while the EA-App wanted to.be installed - which I didn't, because of the new background new install of ThEeSims4. Maybe, but only maybe, this can work for you, too. The procedure would be to
- save your game
- close Origin by using task manager
- copy save files & mods
- uninstall origin, game AND anything related to EA (best by using some free uninstaller)
- install Origin
- wait for your game(s) to be downloaded (and updated instantly) and "ready to play"
- uninstall Origin
- install Origin again
- start your game (be fast...)
That's how I did it, and it worked perfect.
Anyway, it will take some time and is risky though; so, better think twice if it's worth it...
Yeehaw!!! 👍👍
