Many Origin's "Could not activate" windows opening when EA App is

[puzzlezaddict]

@SupahDario and @Gadmek  Then I'd suggest trying a clean boot:

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/how-to-perform-a-clean-boot-in-windows-da2f9573-6eec-00ad-...

When you reboot, go through the Task Manager's background processes list shutting down anything that doesn't absolutely need to be running, for example anything from MSI Afterburner to RGB software might still be active.  If you accidentally kill a critical process and it doesn't restart on its own, just reboot your computer again.

The one exception within to the clean boot process is the EABackgroundService: please do not disable this, or the EA App may not start at all.

I was trying to play Anthem again, downloaded it. Keep getting an error message making me log in, that says "display name field missing from registry" I cannot find a solution at all. Twitter, forums, google, emails, nothing. I just want to play the game that I spent money on like what is going on man. Why is this that hard to get help with.

Been having this issue for the past week didn't start until I upgraded my play to play pro quite annoying because it's a constant thing every 10 minutes or so

Found that error message related to a different game run through Origin in this thread.

This message typically means that Origin can't verify your ownership of a game. Whether it's because Origin is having issues or your computer is blocking its connection to EA servers isn't always clear.

Are you signed into the same Origin account that originally installed Sims 4? If you use a third-party antivirus or firewall, have you set exceptions for Origin.exe and TS4_x64.exe?

You can also try repairing the game: open your Origin game library, right-click on the Sims 4 icon, and select Repair. When you do this, run Origin as an admin: right-click on its shortcut and select "Run as administrator." Run both Origin and Sims 4 as an admin when you try to play as well.

@EA_Vendcera I googled this and it seems like this happens every once in a while. Is there anymore the EA launcher teams can say about this?

Same issue. Just switched from Origin to EA app and this pops up all the time. No idea what game it means. I should never have switched since Origin was WORKING FINE!

Getting the same issue. Tried this method with NFS Unbound, doesn't work.

I uninstalled that EA-App piece of garbage. Origin much better
