How to uninstall Origin on windows 8.1

PC specifications:

Desktop
OS: Windows 8.1

Hard disks:
Local Disk (C:)
New Volume (E:)

Processor: intel i7-4820K CPU @ 3.70 Ghz
RAM: 16GB
x64 based processor
Graphics card: MSI Nvidia GTX 1660 Super

 

Not sure is this the right place to ask, I haven't tried starting Origin on my Windows 8.1 PC since Origin for Windows was discontinued in October 2022. I have only one game that I purchased and installed using Origin (Star Wars Battlefront II (2017)).

 

I need to uninstall Origin and Star Wars Battlefront II on this PC to free up disk space. If it is not possible to log in to Origin anymore to view your games library, would clicking "OriginUninstall.exe" under New Volume (E:) > Program Files (x86) > Origin uninstall the Origin client together with Star Wars Battlefront II as well or does star wars need to be uninstalled separately before uninstalling the Origin client? If they need to be uninstalled separately:

-How do I uninstall Star Wars Battlefront II without launching Origin?

-Do I need to uninstall Star Wars Battlefront II first or uninstall the Origin client first?
