Hey, folks
We tested this on our end and were not able to repro it. Seems like this may be more of a local issue than an EA app issue.
If you are still running into issues with being able to download it, let me know. Tag me in the message and attach a screenshot
We need as much info on your side as we can.
We would like to avoid saying me too since that does not provide us the info we need from you.
Thanks! - Sil3ntman0011 months agoNewcomer

ProvKnight First you want to clear the EA app cache, and then proceed to the rest of the steps.
You can manually delete the folders for the game and the EA app by following the same folder location as the C drive, just within the other drive.
For example:
C:\Program Files\EA Games\Split Fiction
D:\Program Files\EA Games\Split Fiction
EA App's Cache (Top Left Menu > Help > App Recovery)
Delete Windows Temp Files- First, make sure you close as many programs as you can
- Press the Windows key + R, go into the file explorer
- Type in %temp%, and hit Enter
- Delete everything it allows you to delete
- Reboot the PC
Optional Registry clean-up
- install Revo (it's free) from here
- Run Registry cleaner
- Click review selected issues
- Do you want to back up? No
- Click Fix all selected issues

I just tried it on different drives and it would give me the same issue, i don't know how to uninstall any attempts if it doesn't create any folders. any guide on how to completely uninstall the EA app and clean all residue files in order to have a fresh retry?

ProvKnight I would delete or uninstall any attempts to a different folder and test it on the C drive if that is where the EA app is installed to test it. The other drive can cause permissions issues.
I just started the install to test it and it is working, so I am guessing a different drive could be the issue. - ProvKnight1 year agoNew Novice
Yes, i get this screen and it proceeds to the download page, and it says "installing" but then a popup appears saying that i don't own the game. EA_Shepard
