@javathehat The only positive is that you are able to link something and play... I have linked accounts (and I only have one xbox/microsoft and one EA account.

@javathehat I found this https://answers.ea.com/t5/EA-Play-PC/I-can-t-install-EA-Play-games-in-xbox-game-pass/m-p/10181436#M1903 and the link there, that worked. But I really don't want to have UAC enabled ☹️
- @OMyrvold Oh myyy. So workarounds instead of solutions. I'd say "typical" but sometimes they don't even have a workaround...
@javathehat Yup. Idk if it's ok to disable it after the game is installed or not though. Guess I'll try tomorrow or something 🙂
