Same here. I've reinstalled the app, cleaned out all the files, and it still fails every time.

Ok so I've also looked and haven't found anything but I did find a work around, you can download them using origin, that still works, then you can launch with ea desktop if you want or just use origin, your ea play still works there, hope this helps

Yoo i had same problem but it worked when i turned off Potentially Unwanted app blocking in Windows security >App & browser control>Reputation based security also by turning of real time threat procection in Windows security.
don't know why but everytime time i install something from EA desktop i have to turn them off otherwise they give error like "Oops installation failed " even after running EA desktop as administrator .

Yesterday I tried to download Battlefield V with EA Play that is linked to PC Game Pass, but apparently it is giving me many problems, I tried to see if it happened to me in more games, but it turns out that it only happens to me with this one specifically. Also, according to EA Desktop, the game is mine, when in fact I have not paid for it or anything at all. Ask if someone from here can have an idea and if not I will wait for them to fix in launcher

Dude, I am having the same issues. Sims 4 won't install. I keep getting the same error message. 'Oops, installation failed
The final stages of installation didn’t go as planned. Please try again.'
New name, new look, same great benefits: EA Access and Origin Access are now EA Play.
