Madden 22 PC freezing

I know this being posted constantly but im hoping someone will finally have an answer to why the game will freeze during loading or just randomly during games. I am never able to complete all my solo battles as at least 2 are always DNF because the game will just freeze. This was never a problem in madden 21 and the game is literally the same and most "fixes" people have given don't seem to work. I go from direct 12 to direct 11 i put everything on low or off. I changed from full to windowed to full. Launched with admin turned off overlays and even put madden 22 as prio in task manager. All have ended in the same outcome you play hopefully 2 or 3 challenges and suddenly in the next one it freezes. Uninstall and reinstall update windows and the repair the game in origin. And still 6+ months into this game a fix has never been given. And all you guys ask for is Dxdiag files so here you go with another one.

    @EA_Blueberry 

    I would like to report that for the time since using EA app instead of origin I have not had any freezing. I managed to complete 6 solo battles without an issue I ran both madden and EA play as admin with setting madden to high prio in task manager. So the issue could have been origin all along and I very much appreciate the help with solving this issue. Its a shame it took about a year to fix this but nothing can change that.

    I'm sorry you had to deal with tech issues for almost a year to be able to enjoy the title. If anything ever pops up again please jump in these forums and let us know. I do appreciate you coming back to confirm what fixed it for you so others can stumble across solutions here on the forums.

    Good luck on the field!

    @holyflygon Was it specifically installing it through the EA app or just running it through the EA app that fixed it?

    Both I installed madden 22 through EA app and have not had the issue. EA app seems to come with  its own issues but if u launch the game application with the EA app launched u game will not have the issues I had.

    @EA_Blueberry And how can I now add Madden NFL22 to EA Play if I bought it in steam? I can't start the game if the ia play is running. I have exactly the same freezes as other people. Running as administrator and high priority doesn't help

    I have tried setting to high on both EA App and Madden, lowering graphics settings and starting through Stean and EA and I still get freezes loading into games, after picking a play, or after a play. Lucky if I can complete a whole game, or more than 3 challenges without a crash.
