FIXED EC:10607 & Error: 6 (unable to load cloud save or create a new save)
After troubleshooting for 3-4 hours while trying to play NFS Unbound after playing perfectly fine 4 months prior. I identified the root cause. In an effort to keep this Post straight to the point, I will go into more detail after explaining the solution. Solution: 1) Open File Explorer, right-click on your document folder 2) Click the "Location" tab 3) Verify the directory shown is accessible 4) Navigate to the folder, Right-click and make sure it is NOT Read-only or requires special permissions to write into. Ensure Admins have the ability to write/read the folder as well. 5) [If Installed] Open OneDrive, Go to Settings 6) and toggle off the backup for the documents folder. 7) Even if your One Drive was backing up a "document" folder in a non-C-Drive whenever it's set. It actually changes Windows 11's default location for "user\username\Documents" 8) Once the above steps are complete. EA Play should be able to write Saved Data again. Addressing the root issue behind EC: 10607 & EC: 6 Please reply with any questions, concerns, or suggestions.👍 And yes! Your Cloud Saves will be retrieved from EA and placed on your PC, provided you did not override them by signing in on another PC that did not have write issues. 🙌 [Details for those who care] The REAL problem & cause of both EC: 10607 & 6 (while in game) When you try to start a game and see --> EC: 10607 "Cloud save may be corrupted...please create a new save" - This could be the case, but it REALLY means "We attempted to download your cloud save and paste it in %USERPROFILE%\Documents\[Game name] folder AND then we read that location to confirm that the save data was INTACT, but discovered that it was NOT, so we are showing you this error as we believe OUR copy of YOUR cloud save must be corrupted." - Aka, your folder is either deleted, or permissions are not allowing the EA Play app to write to the directory. - This is commonly an issue after people upgrade to Windows 11, their pc or install new cloud management software. Why? Well, because typically people get new Storage devices, sometimes removing the original one, installing - Windows 11 could also rename the drive Letters, leading to a "misplacement" of the saves, or Cloud Storage management software like Google Drive or OneDrive could be manipulating your computer registry to point to an old location. My Personal Experience --> In my case, my original HDD failed, so I upgraded to Windows 11 & installed OneDrive. All over the course of 5 months. When the game landed on a Steam sale, I thought it was a great opportunity to secure a copy and play with friends. - But every time Steam would launch the EA APP, the EA App would forcefully try to read or write to my documents folder, crashing the game even after selecting the "create new Save" option. - EA Play UNLIKE Steam, ONLY saves to that variable Address, it does not care where the document folder is located, but is HARD-coded to save to what your OS considers to be the "document" folder, even if it's non-existent. In Conclusion EA did a poor job of providing clear error feedback to the user and completely misled them due to inadequate error checking & handling. Which led to so much confusion in the beginning. Not receiving access to a folder or seeing that the directory has ZERO files after "attempting a write" is very different from a file being written successfully to the local drive and then being corrupted...

Battlefield 6 not showing in EA Play library (XXXXXXX name issue)
Hello, I've already shared this issue in detail here, but I think I've posted in the wrong place. I thought this issue wasn't related to Battlefield 6, but to EA PLAY, so I decided to start a thread here. No one has responded yet. I don't know how to fix the problem. I'm also very uncomfortable with my name being XXXXXXX, and I can't create a game on PORTAL because it's not registered with my ID.
Steam profile can make you get banned from EA for ever.
I see that they are banning countless players for everything in EA. by their name on Steam because they have linked their account to EA to play games without giving them the option to use their EA account name. This makes me wonder if they can ban you from EA because of your steam photo or your steam profile in general, ignoring the name since I already know the answer. Thanks.
