@Plopperdeplofkip There's a Hide option, right-click the game panel to get this. At this time there's no way to scrub the game fully from the Origin account, but if it's Hidden then it won't show up on your normal games list. 

If this changes (I know it's intermittently requested) it'll be listed in the Origin updates, but I don't know if this is a planned change.

Underneath the hid game option there is an option to remove the game. If not, go to configuration in windows, go to your programs list and remove it manually.

No...there's no option to remove and there's no mention of those demo games in windows programs.

This needs to be addressed.  I own the Sims 4 and don't need the create-a-sim demo clogging up origin.  I'm having issues with the game and want to make sure that nothing is in my computer that doesn't need to be.

@AStrangePuppy Hi,

 

Unfortunately I am not aware of any plans to allow for the deletion of games from your account. Hiding should serve the same purpose however.

What issues are you encountering with your game exactly?

 

Cheers,

Nils

There is no issue with the game(s). It's the fact of the matter.....the "Principal" of it. That we as Origin members, in good standing, should have the ability to keep and remove (DELETE) any game(s) as we see fit and not just given the option to hide them.

Re: How to Delete demo game

Eventualy this is not a problem, it's just your origin account "remembering" all games ever played. If this has to be solved, the overlay of the account system has to be modified and that's a job for the programmers.
