Can't launch Spore Galactic Adventures, can't find information on issue either.

Every time I tried to launch Galactic Adventures, the EA App says "Failed to launch %gameName%" and to try again. Keep in mind that this is through a desktop shortcut or executable. Using the app just opens regular Spore. I repaired the game files, restarted my computer multiple times, ran Glary Utilities, and still nothing works. The last time I ran Galactic Adventures the game worked fine and nothing out of the ordinary happened. I never played Spore on Steam and don't want to go through the process of switching to it. I can't find any information my exact problem/error either, so I don't know what is causing it. Please help.

Note: Image of error has been attached.

I'm another person having similar problem - I can't see any Galactic Adventures content. Booting up "SporeApp.exe" from Galactic Adventures/SporebinEP1 folder causes the "Update EA App" window mentioned here in the comments. Reinstalling, repairing, clearing cache - nothing helps.

And I agree - they should've kept Origin app.

So idk if anyone has mentioned it in this thread, but there is a wworkaround: Use the Spore Mod API Launcher. You don't need to install any mods, just use the launcher to launch galactic adventures. https://www.davoonline.com/sporemodder/rob55rod/ModAPI/Public/index.html
