    @DANNYonPC @OriginInsider I had to create a batch file to launch the EA launcher just so I could stop the background service that keeps running after you exit out of the EA app.

    @OriginInsider Hello, I recently bought Battlefield Five and Battlefield 2042 in Steam, but my account was banned just yesterday. I have complained many times, but I haven't responded. I hope the official can solve the problem of my incorrect sealing

    Reinstall @OriginInsider again. Hoping that Origin fixes the problem but I doubt it. it could not fix the missing Expansions of Sims 3. Now off to get rid of cache, follow EA steps from pre-written texts... however, the last 14 hours that I have done this - THE STEPS DON'T WORK!

    @EA games are supposed to be fun. Logging in with your app is the most frustrating thing ever. I never had this issue with @OriginInsider . @TheSims we have to go back! I can't play your games. I've spent WAY too much money for this to be a thing. Give me back disc's!
