Can not auto import the Origin games #360

Closed L1cardo closed 6 years ago

L1cardo commented 6 years ago

Playnite can import the Origin game at the first time it is installed , but after I removed the Origin game manually , it can not auto import the game at the next startup The reload game list button didn't work either .

here is the log 1.zip

You don't have any Origin games installed according to diag. package. I don't see why you would expect them to be imported, there's nothing to import.

L1cardo commented 6 years ago

No no . I have installed Battlefield 1. What I mean is that after I first installed Playnite, it could import Battlefield 1 successfully . Then I removed Battlefield accidentally , and Playnite didn't auto import it at the next startup. I tried to remove Steam games and Battle Net games, Playnite can re-import them. Only Origin fails.

But the diag. package doesn't show BF1 as installed, at least not according to files Playnite uses to detect installed Origin games. I'm not sure what to do about it, you will probably need to reinstall BF1.

Well , ok then . Re-downloading the 70 GB files will be killing me , haha . Anyway , thanks!

You can close the issue .

JosefNemec commented 6 years ago

You don't need to re-download it, rename folder with BF1, uninstall it, rename it back and install it back. Origin won't re-download the whole game if it finds the files being there already.

L1cardo commented 6 years ago

OK, I will do as you said, thanks

JosefNemec commented 6 years ago

Let me know if it fixed the issue so I can close this. Thanks

L1cardo commented 6 years ago

I did as you said, the rename-and-rename thing, and the BF1 appeared in Playnite. You can close the issue now . It is solved .Thanks!
