EA app deleted itself and now won't reinstall
I noticed that whenever I turned my computer on and tried to play Sims 4, it would say I didn't have the EA app installed. I would just reinstall with the installer, and I would be fine. But now whenever I use the installer, it fails and gives me error code: INST-3-1920. I have deleted all the files and retried, but no luck!
[UPDATE] EA app Friends List, Invites, Cross-Play — What's Going On
Hi all, For last few weeks, the right side of the EA app is in indefinite loading screen. My profile pic, status and friend list are a part of this infinite loading screen, PFA. Because of this, in game friends who are online don't show up as well as I don't show as Online for my friends. I have no issue playing the game but I am no longer able to play with my friends. Tried the following but nothing helped: App uninstall and re-install. Delete reg edit entries, clear local data after EA uninstall and reinstall. Delete Apex legends and EA app, delete all involved folders, local data, reg edit entries and reinstall. Restart router. Also tried installing EA app in D: drive(custom location) but it keeps installing in C: drive. Not sure if this helps though.
EA app entitlements are wildly inconsistent (sometimes missing dozens of games)
My EA app library frequently is missing entitlements. In Example 1 from March 13 (Example 1 link), you can see that EA app detected 1 installed game (I have 4 installed), and only detected 11 additional games in my library. In Example 2 (Example 2 link), also from March 13 (immediately after restarting EA app after Example 1), you can see that EA app detected 4 installed games, and an additional 93 games in my library (this is closer to accurate, but I need go back through my years' worth of entitlements to figure out which, if any, games are missing at this point; I know some like Anthem and Knockout City have been removed from everyone's libraries since those have been taken offline, and I am not disputing the absence of those few multiplayer-only titles, as lamentable as their absence might be; the issue is that I am having a large number of single-player games not show up in my library at times). In Example 3 from March 16 (Example 3 link), EA app detects 4 installed games, and an additional 81 games in my library (when EA app has entitlement issues, it is usually closer to showing 80-ish of my 100-ish games, as opposed to only showing a dozen or so titles). These are all games for which I have purchased licenses (i.e., this is not from an EA Play subscription, although I have had one in the past). When these games are missing, they aren't grayed-out in my library, they are completely absent from my EA app library. Pressing Ctrl+F5 does not fix it. In my experience, giving EA app several minutes does not result in the missing titles loading in, only restarting EA app (temporarily) fixes it. Restarting EA app once usually fixes it (until it occurs again in a subsequent login session); sometimes it requires one or two additional restarts before displaying accurately. EA app is the only client with which I experience this. I would not say I am encountering this 50% of the time, but it is a frequent occurrence. Is this entitlements inconsistency between EA's servers? I have a dynamically-assigned IP address. I am currently using my ISP's DNS service, but I have used Google and Cloudflare in the past, and it had no bearing on this issue. I am not experiencing any network disruption (Ethernet), and I am using a legitimate installation of Windows 10 Pro 64-bit (with the latest Extended Security Updates installed), and I've encountered this issue well before Windows 10 was EOL. It has been happening randomly since the release of EA app. I have also had EA app (I would imagine server-side) clear out my wishlist. I do not have EA app set to open at startup (EA services do run though, e.g., EABackgroundService). Clearing EA app's cache does not prevent this issue. Running System File Checker does not fix this issue. I have already added antivirus and firewall exceptions for EA app [EADesktop.exe, EALauncher.exe, EALaunchHelper.exe, EABackgroundService.exe, EALocalHostSvc.exe, and EACefSubProcess.exe are the only EA app binaries I currently have exception rules for (no EA app binaries are blacklisted, but the aforementioned EXEs are the only ones for which I currently have whitelist rules), but I have previously created exceptions for all EXEs in %PROGRAMFILES%\Electronic Arts\EA Desktop, and it made no difference]. Turning off my antivirus suite altogether also does not alleviate this issue. All ports listed at https://web.archive.org/web/20140929090241/http://help.ea.com/en/article/connection-issues-with-origin/ have been configured for port forwarding with my router, and my router has its latest firmware installed. Clean booting my PC does not prevent this issue. No VPN or proxy server is being used, nor is the computer configured for one. I am not accessing EA app from different locales (i.e., traveling). No DNS filtering tools are being used.
Can’t uninstall Battlefield 6 Single Player and HD Texture Pack on EA App
Hey everyone, I’m having an issue with the EA App when trying to uninstall Battlefield 6 Single Player and Battlefield 6 Single Player HD Textures. Here’s what happens: I open the game’s Manage Add-ons section. I deselect both Single Player (17 GB) and Single Player HD Textures (8 GB). Then I press Update Install, but nothing happens — the app doesn’t uninstall them, and no storage space is freed. I already tried restarting the app, repairing the game, and even rebooting my PC, but the issue remains. It just refuses to remove those two components. Can someone from EA please check this out? Or if anyone has found a fix, I’d really appreciate your help. Thanks.BF6 purchased from Steam is not showing up in the EA app
I bought Battlefield 6 from Steam months ago and I play it without any problems. The issue is that I can't see it in the EA app. I want to redeem some gift codes, but since it's not showing up, I can't. My account is correctly linked; I have other Steam titles that display without any problems, and this issue only happens with Battlefield. I've attached screenshots to see if an admin or user can help me with a solution. Thank you for your support. Rob.
EA App suddenly stopped opening on Windows 11
Hi everyone, About two days ago, the EA App suddenly stopped opening on my computer without any apparent reason. Until then, I was able to play my games normally, but now, when I try to launch the app, nothing happens — no error message, and the interface doesn’t show up. What I’ve tried so far: Ending all EA-related processes in Task Manager and trying again Adding an exception in the antivirus and even disabling it Running as administrator Changing compatibility settings Running EA App Recovery and EA App Update Submitting a report using EA Error Reporter (I have the ticket ID) Completely uninstalling and reinstalling the EA App Rolling back the latest Windows updates Still, the issue remains. Interestingly, the EA App appears as a running process in Task Manager, but the interface never loads. Even when trying to launch a game directly from its shortcut, neither the game nor the EA App starts. Additional info: Windows 11, version 24H2, build 26.100.3624 I work in IT and have technical knowledge, I’ve tried many solutions before reaching out here. No system changes or suspicious installations occurred between the time it was working and when it stopped. I honestly don’t know what else to do. If anyone has faced this issue or knows of a fix, I’d really appreciate your help!
