You need to run game once through Steam + Origin app. After that game will work on Steam + EA app.
Origin is no longer officially supported, so you can look the instruction via Steam forums/guides or N7 Squad Discord.
Would not let me do that orgin wanted the code
- Make sure EA app and Steam are closed.
- Press the Windows key and "R" at the same time.
- Type or copy and paste "%ProgramData%\Electronic Arts\EA Services" (without the quotes) into the new Window > ENTER
- Move the "License" folder to your desktop.
- Test.
Got refund from steam tired of run around
This did not help as I am encountering the same issue. I added a screenshot of the error from the EA app and it does show that I am signed into the correct account. I own all of the Mass Effect games on Steam and all of them except for Mass Effect 3 will launch. So the issue is defiantly with Mass Effect 3 and Mass Effect 3 alone. Some help please because unlike OP I have over 200 hours logged in ME3 and I am ineligible for a refund.
Try to install ME1 over EA app.
Thanks, worked perfectly for me and I only play ME3 through the EA app not through steam.
What exactly did work?
