Can't run the game anymore from Steam after linking Epic with Origin. I have already own this game on steam before 5 -6 months.. Now when Im going to run the game from steam its showing activation required.. Plz help cant run the game anymore :
Good morning everyone,
We did a fix under the night and have been confirmed fixed on our side let us know how its working out for you!
Thanks again for your patience!

I managed to get it fixed! Very complicated process, but I'll outline it for you all.
Talked to EA support and they were able to remove my Epic Games account from my EA account.
I uninstalled and reinstalled both origin, epic, and battlefront 2
I got Epic support to remove battlefront 2 from my Epic Games library
When everything finished downloading, I launched the game from steam and it worked!
The issue is in linking your origin and epic accounts. Once Epic can no longer interact with Origin, it should be fine.
@ImproperGravity I'll try it too, thx for the help
my friend had a similar solution, but he asked Epic Games Support "TO REMOVE EVERY SINGLE TRACE OF THIS GAME ON MY ACCOUNT"
but it seems your solution is way better
I have never connected epic games to either steam or origin and I'm still getting these issues.
@grynnThat's correct. I bought it on steam for $20 I think back in mid November. Have not had one issue until Epic games had their giveaway. I haven't had epic games installed or anything since a couple days after satisfactory came out like over a year ago. Still getting the same issues everyone else is getting.
@grynnBy that I mean. Connection dropping, skill point not saving correctly, losing progress, getting kicked, unable to connect to ea store error in game, etc.. the only accounts connected to my Origin account (that I wasn't initially aware of might I add) are my steam account and my ps4 account because I had it on there too. But no issues there until the Epic Games giveaway recently.
@ChaoticZyekes That's not the same issue we have, Origin doesn't let us play thru Steam as Epic overwrote the Steam copy. You're just having connection issues due to additional demand and I believe they got fixed by now.
