 I am having trouble connectin xbox app to the ea extension it says were having trouble connecting to the ea app error code:-2147221163 to contact ea app support

I have tired all of these- 

Restart and Update:

Restart your PC.

Make sure Windows is up to date with the latest updates installed.

Check Internet and Security Software:

Ensure your internet connection is stable.

Temporarily disable any third-party antivirus or firewall to rule out interference. If this fixes it, add the EA app as an exception in your security software.

Redownload and Reinstall EA App:

Uninstall the EA app completely.

Download the latest installer from the official EA website and reinstall it.

Check Account Linking and Authentication:

Visit the EA Account connection page: Log out from all EA-related sites, then back in using the 'Sign in with Xbox' option.

If prompted, create or relink your EA ID.

You may need to manually unlink and relink your Xbox and EA accounts by visiting the connections section in your EA account settings 

 Clear DNS Cache:

Open Command Prompt as Administrator and run: ipconfig /flushdns 

 Check Xbox Services Are Running:

Open Services app (Win+R, type services.msc).

Find and make sure these are set to “Automatic” and running:

Xbox Live Auth Manager

Xbox Live Game Save

Xbox Live Networking Service

Gaming Services

IP Helper
