Fifa 22 Download Problems

I wanted to download Fifa 22 again. However, the process stopped at 96% each time. I then tried everything possible with an EA employee to solve the problem, but unfortunately nothing changed.

Does anyone have any ideas what could be done?

    Is your hard drive partitioned or do you have more than one drive? If yes, have you tried selecting a different drive when installing the game?

    If the background services keep crashing, there might be a program conflicting with the EA app. As you have already disabled all background apps, it might be worth trying to create a new Windows Admin account to see if you're able to install it there: Manage User Accounts in Windows
