I’ve been dealing with manual updates for the EA app all year, and I recently found out about this Non-Steam Launcher that supposedly automates the update process. I installed it right away, but now it seems to be broken. I try using the update shortcut for the EA app, and it completes the update, but when I launch the EA app, it still says I need to restart for an update. Has anyone else encountered this issue?

Manual installations can mess things up when updating directly through the launcher. I suggest reading this guide about updating the EA Desktop app. It could provide some solutions, like creating a new steam entry for the EADestager.exe. This might help you avoid conflicts with the EA app update!
Have you tried using the “repair EA app” option in your library? Some people mentioned it can fix issues, but if you’ve already manually updated the app, it might not work as expected. It typically refreshes the app, but if it’s signaling a restart, there might be deeper issues going on. Just a thought!
