Hello,

I tried to launch via Origin yesterday, but the app forced me to download the EA app. Fine, I didn't really want the change, but I did it.

Except now, my game doesn't work, and I tried to "repair" but it doesn't download properly. I think the base game was downloaded, but every pack and the legacy version don't want to download. It says "Something went wrong. Try again later". Which I did, I also restarted the app, and nothing changed.

Thank you for your help

Merged into the master thread. Check EA App has Full Disk Access in System Settings > Privacy & Security (see opening post).
