Can't run the game anymore from Steam after linking Epic with Origin.

It's not showing any battlefront 2, its showing only epic games' battlefront 2. I want to start the game from steam, not from epic games. Help!

@TheGooseShotproblem is epic overwrote steam one, there is no steam version on the library if you connected epic and ea. EA needs to fix this ASAP

We need an official reply from EA about this, a lot of people are having this issue.

Owned Battlefront 2 on Steam but claimed it on Epic Games.

★★★ Newbie

When I launch the game it enters an infinite loading screen. Launching from Steam doesn't work and comes up unidentified asking me for an activation code. In my Origin library it says I only own the Epic Games version. Any way I can fix this?
