Battlefield 1 download fails - Uninstalled now trying to reinstall

[ Edited ]
★★★ Novice

I previously had a copy of Battlefield 1 installed but uninstalled it due to not playing and needed space on my HD. Now I have 2 new HD and BF1 fails to download. I have installed recently BF5 and Apex with out any issues. I did have an issue with the update on BF5 getting stuck on resuming but I read a thread about going into "oflfine" mode the "online" mode and this fixed this.

 

Any help were be great.

Update -  The same issue is now with Battlefront, Unstalled previously and now it fails to download.

@capins83 Are you trying to install the game on the same drive as origin or on a different drive?

@capins83 check your origin library directories in origin client and set them accordingly to your chosen location and check if there's enough space
if still your game isn't installed try to repair your installation if you see the game as "installed"
let me know

Hi, do you mean on the same drive as the installer program? 

 

If so, No.

@capins83 for the sake of a try can you reinstall origin?
try that:
Completely log out and close down Origin
Hold down the Windows key and R
Type in "%ProgramData%" (without quotes) and click OK
Now open the Origin folder.
Delete all the files and folders in the Origin folder, except for LocalContent (do not delete this one)
Hold down the Windows key and R
Type in "%AppData%" (without quotes) and click OK
This will take you to a Roaming folder, which is located inside of AppData. Delete the Origin folder
Click on the word "AppData" at the top of your window
Open the Local folder here
Delete the Origin folder listed here
Restart your PC and log back into Origin

let me know!
