    No, nothing helped, unfortunately. But I moved from EA App to Origin and it's working again for the moment.

@Fred_vdp I did as you suggested and the game still crashes.

I did read through the post you linked and apparently what worked was doing an offline re-install while removing their savegames and unfortunately I only have a digital copy.

      @Tarciryan-N7S Hey! Curious if you had any save files here: C:\Users\user\Documents\BioWare\Mass Effect 3?

      If so did you move them out of that folder while the EA app was installed? Origin shouldn't even work anymore really on PC.

        I deleted all that early on while troubleshooting, anything related to ME3 on my computer, and even scrubbed the registry for ME3-related stuff.

        Luckily there are community tools available for those who want to use Origin.
