Oh... I've encountered this problem today and I think that's why. For some reason, Generations wasn't showing up for me - like, that it ever even existed on my computer. It wasn't in my launcher or in my "Electronic Arts" folder, even though Origin says it's installed. That was the one game code I purchased from ebay about 6-8 months ago.
But how could EA UNINSTALL generations from my own computer??? It's literally no where in any of my files.
They can't, technically. What this means is that they have likely placed a TOS (Terms of Service) Hold on your account on their end and Origin reacts accordingly by blocking the previously installed EP from running. The actual program files may be hidden from regular view by Origin but even if the program files themselves are still there taking up drive space, they wouldn't be able to run anyway as Origin manages the entire launch process.
This can only be confirmed and such a Hold lifted by having a real time conversation with EA through Customer Support -- chat or phone callback, depending upon what is available in your area and time of day. It can take several business days from beginning such a conversation until resolution is reached from what is being reported.
