    @Lunar1Lunar  Please uninstall the EA App with Revo Uninstaller (the free version is fine), and restart your computer before reinstalling the App.  If that alone doesn't help, please run the App as an admin: right-click the desktop shortcut and select "Run as administrator."  Do the same with Steam or the Epic launcher if you're using either of those.

    If that doesn't help, please post a screenshot of the error.

    How did you figure out how to uninstall the EA app? It's telling me it doesn't exist even though it does....

      @CAbyss1988  Try downloading a fresh copy of the App installer and running it.  You may get the option to repair the App instead; select that.  If the App still won't work after this repair, you should at least be able to uninstall it with Revo.
