EA App Malfunctioning and Sims 4 Crashing
If I can even get my EA to launch without it telling me multiple times that it cannot connect to the servers, my Sims 4 game will last for less than five minutes before crashing. I do not have any mods nor CC, and I have cleared my cache. I have restarted my laptop twice now, and ran the App Recovery option on the EA app. I have no idea what is going on and I am unbelievably frustrated.
NEW EA APP launcher installation may be corrupt started 2-19-2026
Seems EA is back to "its" games again. Starting 12-19-2026 the EA app launcher updated and failed to install and will not reinstall and it does not even install far enough properly to even do a proper uninstall. leaving files and registry trash un-removed. It is one thing to install and have it NOT work. It is another thing to partially install and leave files all over your PC. Good job EA another crappy software product. Last time something happened like this I could not get anything working for almost a year. Good job EA way to break whats not broke on a supposed better update. Now it erased the good WINDOWS EA app installation I had and installed a corrupt installation with bad entries in the the startup (msconfig = startup entries) that I had to keep removing manually because of dead entries and to stop the perpetual re-install loop EA created. The install NEVER completes and dies at about 90% of the installation because it is looking for bad installation paths and and then it remains in an installation loop after launch attempts and reboots. If you are lucky you might be able to perform a partial uninstall removal but it leaves all kinds of trash in the registry and leaves random installation files and folders all over the place. I spent 6 hrs trying to get BF3 working for my nephew and I have never seen such a crappy software package in my life as I have with this EA APP and to roll this out to the public without proper testing is criminal. Talk about unprofessional! It removed critical windows C++ files and never puts them back. I have tried many EA App downloads of various version and installs (which is really useless because they all pull from the same install directories but I wanted to be sure) NONE of them work and I know without a doubt 3 of the earlier version worked fine. I also managed to get an MSI.exe installation of EA APP and I was able to get the the EA service loaded but it would never connect and authenticate to EA hence even that did not work so this implies there has been a change in EAs link authentication process between this newest and the last EA APP versions (which basically means there is nothing any of us can do about that) I even went back to the old manual Origin Installation and it was able to get the EA background service installed working but then EA along came the forced installation to blow it all up again. and remove everything on its forced update and left me back in the installation loop. I have tried running the install as admin and in various compatibility modes, tried installation repairs (it to loops) , checked the ports they were good but no data was moving so I suspect the installation never gets far enough to create the port communication protocols completely and this is also because it never seems to install the EA background service fully either. So it all comes back with the same and no luck same results. Tried manually blowing away all the files I could find in the file system and the registry the tried 3x ...no change. Scoured EAs website for a cleanup tool like they had years ago and nothing.. My God! who built their help site. The colors are so dark you cannot even read the pages. It is impossible to read or even put in a case. Brilliant move EA. (Was this your intent to begin with?) I am able to get to the BF3 gateway website and access my online web BF3 profile and everything works fine on that side. Heck ever punkuster was working but without the EA launcher you cannot get authenticated into EA to launch anything in the software library. It just fails because it is an incomplete corrupt installation and therefore not connecting to EA hence the Game apps will not launch.. So it is crystal clear this is a failure with the EA App specifically.. All the web access and web plugins function normally.. So it is not the OS, or the Browser or even my system files. it is the EA APP that is the problem. I have scoured the web and there are MANY MANY MANY MANY complaints of various issues all related to the same EA app problem. I have found no clear fixes. anywhere and EA support has been next to nothing. No fixes , no support phone number, no chat, no response, no nothing. They left the EA customers to their own discoveries to try to fix the problem with zero support. Pathetic! I suspect this is their FORCED answer to ending support for earlier windows editions which is ridiculous for a web interface product. All you need is a login web site the people can authenticate to and not a separate installation app. EA come to the the 21st Century we are waiting on you. So you sent out bad software and then ostracize people who have been customer for years. POOR POOR POOR! I know this will be the last EA product I will ever buy considering how they throw garbage out after we pay top dollar and don't even support it. My god.. EA wonders WHY they are losing so much market share and why people are moving away from their products. Ie their last BF6 release for example. I cannot imagine why with this garbage support. I must say this has been frustrating to be left hanging by EA like this..... Guess I go tell my nephew to go to the store to go pick out something other than an EA product since it does not look like this game or any others he plays will be running any time soon. Way to lose another customer EA. Keep up the good work!
Games not working and disappearing
I have been a member for 10 years and never had this much trouble. I got a new computer for christmas and installed some of my games. My Dragon Age games in which I have the deluxe editions will not play. I get errors as if I don't have a license to play them. I have many different games in my library.....or I DID. When I logged in this morning they were all GONE as if I never purchased anything. My account information shows NO purchase history. What is going on? I did an app recovery and the library came back, but it doesn't help the issue for not being able to play the games.
EA App randomly closes while playing BF6
My EA App crashes randomly while playing BF6. Sometimes i play for hours and it's ok. Sometimes crashes after one match or two. Closes BF6 AND EA app. Almost everytime no messages of any error at all. I receive only 2 times a message of an issue with "The app crash unexpectedly, we ran into a problem, but a quick restart should fix it." I check marked to send the crash report. I already checked all drivers and bios that are updated. Cleaned the cache from EA app and logging in with the user and password anytime. Nothing solve the problem. Another issue that i noticed are, when i am in a party at BF6, when any friend are the Party leader, they cannot select any mode. They shows with a Lock and can't start any match. But, if i am the leader at a party, i can select any mode to play. This issue only started to happens today. C'mon EA, you need to solve those issues.

Not receiving pre order or deluxe edition DLC
I pre ordered the deluxe edition of Dragon Age the Veilgaurd and have still not received my DLC. It just does not show up in the game. This has been happening since the release of the game in November last year. Does anyone have any idea how this can be fixed? It shows here but does not show up in the game at all. I've completed the game and still nothing.Can't launch games, instantly closes back to EA app with no error.
God, honestly. Don't even know why I'm writing this, not like the company worth literal billions, worth more than my entire ancestry is going to do a thing about it. Three years, not three months, not three weeks, not three days. Three, **bleep** years. You guys have had the exact same issue for three years, and so help me god if one person that replies to this tells me to explain more into what's happening I am going to Mike Tyson my monitor with a strength incomprehensible to humankind. I will give you the version which everybody else that has reported this has had. I installed a game, PGA Tour because I pay for EA play and I was like, I might as well get my money's worth. Hadn't used the app in like five months because of the exact bug so I completely forgot about it. Went to launch the game, got literal war flashbacks. I tried to start the game, I was excited. It says "Launching game" Oh I'm so happy, I'm gonna get to play PGA Tour! Then, the launching game goes away, ea app closes. THEN IMMEDIATELY OPENS AGAIN, NOT LAUNCHING THE GAME. Literal mental warfare ensues. I start remembering and I'm literally fighting every demon the world has ever seen. It's not like this is an uncommon bug, there is HUNDREDS, MAYBE THOUSANDS, throughout the last THREE YEARS, of this EXACT BUG. I fixed it once the first time I got it, I had to do some Jerry Rigged bs, WHICH I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO BECAUSE IT'S JUST LAUNCHING A GAME, AND THEN YOU GUYS TOOK THAT POST DOWN. "Oh will you show us your DXDIG" Or whatever it's called. NO, I won't. I have before. Did nothing, literally just started ghosting me on my own post. Do you guys get paid for the work you do? Every thing you suggest will "Help" is written down on your copy and paste garbage sheet that you guys use. Then when that runs out of things, YOU JUST GHOST EVERYBODY. I mean, I can get a week of an issue in the launcher, MAYBE even a month depending. BUT THREE YEARS? You money grabbing sad sacks could care less about the people who have actual issues and only decide to focus on whatever will get you the most money. You could have two hundred people complaining about the same issue, and because Bateson is still spending ten grand a week on EA FC, that's all you care about. Also, it's not even just PGA. It's EA FC, it's Madden, man I installed seven different games, SIX OF THEM DIDN'T WORK. HOW DOES THAT HAPPEN? GENUINELY. DID I SPEND ENOUGH MONEY THIS YEAR ON EA FC? I have tried EVERY possible fix on EVERY post I could find. EVEN ONES IN A DIFFERENT LANGUAGE I TRANSLATED THEM. This was my message, can't wait for copy and pasted garbage!PC Games Madden 25 and EA FC 25 will not start.
When I try to load both of these games, the splash screen will come up, the bar will jump to the end and then the EA desktop app will just reopen with the game never launching. I only just bought Madden and have not been able to start it yet. I have >300 hours in FC25 and this is the first time I've noticed it with this game. I've tried: Reinstalling both game and EA app Clearing EA App Cache Repairing files Uninstalling EA anticheat to prompt it to reinstall Nothing has worked so far.
EA App and game going offline
Over the past few years I have had issues when playing Sims 4, since the new EA app came out. Quite often during gameplay I get the message that the app has gone offline. It isn't an internet issue, this has occured with different internet providers and I have ran diagnostics on it. During gameplay with the quests through the game, I can't redeem any of the event prizes, even when it stated I am online.
