I already attempted the thing where I move the folder onto my desktop- and the EA app is downloaded on my computer, but Uninstaller does not seem to list it as something I can uninstall. The game does not open regardless, and the same "Preparing game" window appears before the app closes itself and then opens again, only to repeatedly do that
@pompadorbz Your dxdiag crashed multiple times while running and is missing a lot of info. This could be a glitch, but still, please run a couple of basic checks of your Windows system files:
- Hit Windows key-X
- Choose either “PowerShell (Administrator)” or “Windows Terminal (Administrator),” whichever option is offered
- Inside the window that appears, copy and paste “DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth” without quotes, and enter
- The system will start validating soon. If it throws an error, please list it here
- After it reaches 100%, hit Windows key-X again
- Again, choose “PowerShell (Administrator)” or “Windows Terminal (Administrator)”
- Inside the window, copy and paste “sfc /scannow” without quotes, and enter
- Post the message you receive here
Restart your computer, hit Windows key-i, select Update & Security, and click the box to check for updates. If any install, restart again afterwards.
For the EA App issue, download a fresh copy of the installer and run it. You may be asked if you'd like to repair instead; choose that. Then uninstall it with Revo and reinstall.

"Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations."
And the first thing I tried was to reinstall it and repair the download. It still doesn't show up, unfortunately :')

@pompadorbz Do you see anything inside C > Program Files > Electronic Arts? There would normally be an EA Desktop folder here, which you can delete to remove the EA App program files, whatever is left of them. I would then use Piriform's CCleaner (the free version is fine) to clean out any remaining EA App-related data. Restart your computer and try again to install the App.

I reinstalled it using the method-- It's still doing the same thing where I try opening the game and the window keeps repeatedly showing up then closing
I am haunted constantly by this thing opening and closing repeatedly
