EA needs to get rid of their app
As the title says, the app needs to be removed and EA needs to **bleep** off. First off, no one wants to install the EA app just to play a game. Second, no one wants to install an app made by a 6 year old, an app of which repeatedly opens throughout the day when playing an EA game. I've also had numerous instances where the EA app overrides Steam and forces the game to close out of the blue. With that being said, the EA app is going to be the reason why EA ends up in a massive lawsuit not only for forcing consumers to install an app that serves no real purpose at all but to connect to EA's services; but installing an app that behaves like malware and takes unauthorized action on a person's computer. With that being said, if EA is going to have an app, they need to do what Rockstar does and just have it run in the background without bothering the user or interfering. I lost Ultimate parts in NFS because the **bleep** app closed the game. To top it all off, I don't even use EA's services, nor do I care to.
Battlefield 3 not running from steam says 'you dont have access'
bought battlefield 3 in year 2020 from steam when origin was still around, played it for few hours and dropped it, fast forward to today trying to launch the game it says 'you dont own the game', 'the title may have been downloaded to your device by another user who owns the game. log in to different account. pls help"F1 25/26 missing from EA App library — chat blocked, Two-Player Career stuck"
Platform: PC (Steam) Game: F1 25 (with the 2026 season DLC/expansion) Description: I own and have installed F1 25, including the 2026 season expansion, through Steam. The game runs and launches fine, but it does NOT appear in my EA App library, even though my Steam account is correctly linked to my EA account (verified under Account Settings > Connected Accounts). This missing entitlement seems to be causing two in-game issues: 1. Chat/communication is blocked in-game with the message "Content restricted due to profile settings." 2. Two-Player Career mode gets permanently stuck on "joining session" and never connects. My Two-Player Career partner has no issues on their end and can join normally — this only happens on my account. Troubleshooting already done (no change): - EA account age verification is already completed/confirmed (done previously for another title). - Confirmed Steam is correctly linked to my EA account, correct Steam ID. - Reviewed EA account privacy and communication settings — nothing restricted. - Verified game file integrity via Steam. - Reinstalled/repaired the EA App. - Restarted EA App, Steam, and PC multiple times. I already contacted EA Help support and was told this looks like a bug that needs to be escalated to the game team, and was asked to post here for visibility/updates. Has anyone else run into this specific issue (game works via Steam but missing from EA App library, causing chat/Two-Player Career restrictions)? Any updates from the dev team would be appreciated.FC 26 failed to launch after EA Javelin Anti Cheat pop up
Hi, I'm trying to launch FC 26 from Steam. The EA AntiCheat window appears and loads for about a minute, then closes. The game never starts, and I don't receive any error message. I've already tried everything I could find — every tutorial and forum suggestion online — but none of these steps have fixed the problem. I've attached my DxDiag report and Event Viewer log from when FC 26 crashed. I'd really appreciate it if someone could take a look and help me figure out what's causing this issue. Thank you🙏EA App launcher crashing (EALauncher.exe / EALaunchHelper.exe, 0xc0000005)
Posting here since I originally reported this in the CFB 27 forum, but I’ve since confirmed it’s not game-specific — it’s the EA App launcher itself. Symptoms: Games hang on “Preparing Game: Completed” or freeze during shader compile Sometimes escalates to a full system freeze (Task Manager becomes unresponsive) Occurs identically on two separate titles — College Football 27 (Steam) and FIFA/FC 27 (EA App) Confirmed via Event Viewer (Windows Logs > Application): EALauncher.exe — Exception code 0xc0000005 (access violation), consistent fault offset across multiple crashes EALaunchHelper.exe — Same exception code, consistent fault offset Multiple crashes logged within seconds of each other Troubleshooting completed, none resolved the issue: Full EA App uninstall + manual cleanup of leftover folders (AppData, LocalAppData, Program Files) + clean reinstall Verified integrity of game files via Steam Repaired Visual C++ Redistributable (x64) Updated AMD GPU driver to latest Fully uninstalled third-party antivirus (Norton) to rule out interference Ruled out custom input drivers/hardware (issue persists with all non-essential USB devices disconnected) Confirmed GPU power settings at default Granted Full Control permissions on EA Desktop and game install folders Confirmed Windows fully updated System specs: CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7600X GPU: AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB (RDNA 4) RAM: 31.2GB OS: Windows 11 Storage: NVMe SSDEA app crashes upon startup, no matter what I do
Good evening. Whenever I open the EA app, it stays open for ten seconds at maximum before closing itself/crashing. I cannot input or click anything. Trying to open the game I want (TS4) through Steam doesn't help, either, as it just crashes and I get an error code from TS4 saying I need the EA app open to play. (TS4 isn't the problem, its the EA app itself.) I have already done multiple steps to troubleshoot based on previous forum logs, from (this list is out of order) uninstalling via Revo Uninstaller, restarting my computer, and reinstalling the EA app, clean booting my PC, clearing the EA app cache, running it as administrator, checking for updates on both the EA app and on my Windows OS, running DISM to check the integrity of my Windows files. Attached below is a video of the EA app crashing and a DxDiag txt document.
Questions about EA vs. Steam and Expansions
So someone played The Sims 4 on Steam and had all their expansions on there on Windows. They bought a mac and now do not have access to their expansions because they purchased them on Steam. I was wondering if I bought the expansions they had for them on the EA app, would they launch with the base game if they opened it on Steam, or would they have to get the base game on EA too? If so, would they lose anything? I don't really know anything about The Sims because this would be as a gift so any help would be much appreciated, I can't seem to find a clear answer anywhere
