Why am I getting forced to install EA App?

[Shadowdance2]

I have a problem, Sims 3 requires origin to launch. I tried EA app no success - requires origin to work. Every time I have tried origin it blocks me with a message to force me to update EA app. which I have. But I am forced to download and use Origin app to use sims 3. But I can't. What are you people doing in EA?! You created a ridiculous loop, blocking access to games.

I want a solution to this EA created problem. Either get EA to work with Sims 3 correctly, or remove your message block from Origin app.

just wanna throw this out there, i don't know if they updated it bc it didn't work, second, NEVER EVER am i trusting random pepole online, i was happy cause i got rid of the pop up but it didn't work, liars

Don't have the Origin app since EA updated their app months ago, so this supposed fix is not a fix for many of us.

Obviously not everyone's computer is the same so all fixes/workarounds aren't for everyone. But months later, I still recommend @NovaDragonScale 's link to the YouTube video by StickmanWeasle and also another video on his channel to get rid of the popup (and also the white screen...but since I never intend to download from EA again, I don't care if Origin is just a white screen). Best wishes
