    @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 @EAHelp Hi, my router is broken and I won't have a new one for 3 to 5 business days. How can I access my game library on Origin? It won't let me view them.

  • Crosimmer
    crosimmer (@Crosimmer) reported

    @Jessicamp1979 @EA @OriginInsider It has shown up in my library (although with a download error, because EA) so it should hopefully show up for you soon (for whatever reason, it says The Sims 2 Double Deluxe). If it doesn't work out, there are always ways to get it from other places.

    @OriginInsider Hello! Im having a bit of trouble after I transferred from origin to the EA app. Now when I try and play the sims 3 or 4 the game won't load. It says the title I have downloaded may have been downloaded from another user. Not sure how to fix this since I only use one account.

    @redalpha23sims @TheSims @OriginInsider I will try it too. I have repaired it yesterday. But somehow, this might be a glitch? Imagine that if one can download all the DLCs for free?
