NFS UNBOUND : the title may have been downloaded to your device by another user

Hello,

I have downloaded the game with steam, got refunded, then get it on origin. I have in my collection. I can download it. But I dont have the play button.

When I try to launch the game directly with the .exe, i have the following message : 

this title may have been downloaded to your device by another user who owns the game. Log in to a different account or restart the app to try again.

It's me who downloaded the game.

I have the game and the key.

I have restarted the app, cleared the cache, the computer, etc.

Can't find a solution. 

  • @OpsVictor You probably need to delete the old save game and maybe the settings. Assuming uninstalling from Steam did not remove those. There’s a folder under Documents.

    It worked for me thanks! Although I don't like what has transpired, I should be able to launch the app by pressing the main "sims 4" icon. I believe I'll contact ea support team at a certain point.

  • I don't know if it helps but these days the same thing happened to me with f1 23, I redownloaded it twice and it seemed to work again, but after a while the error came back, after a few attempts I found that in in my case the fault was AVAST, it deleted the .EXE of the game without even reporting it to me, restored it by creating an exception and for now it seems to work without problems, I hope this helps.
