Unable to launch game due to error

Whenever I try to launch the game, I get the error 'cannot start because game data is missing or damaged'

I have tried the following and it still does not work:

  1. reinstalled the game and ea app
  2. repaired game files
  3. installed on a new drive
  4. updated my graphics drivers
  5. repaired the actual drives (no errors drive wise)
  6. tried the method where you make a duplicate save file
  7. tried to launch through steam
  8. cleared cache

I don't know what else to try, there is nothing else online that is suggested. Help please!!!
