Can't uninstall most games?

Hello @StoutWizard2876!

I hope you're doing great out there despite the issue that you're experiencing.

Would you please try to preform a Soft Factory Rest to your console as it will reset the OS and delete all potentially corrupted data that can cause this issue without deleting your games or apps. Just make sure to select Reset and keep my games & apps.

To Reset your console, Select System > Settings > System > Console info > Select Reset console > Choose Reset and keep my games and apps.

Note =>The "Reset and Keep my Games and Apps" option will not cause losing your games, but please be aware that you need to be completely aware of the email address as well as the password of your account before going for it because it will require you to sign in to the account.

Please give it a try and let us know how it goes!

I hope that this helps you out!

It is because of EA Access most likely. I've been talking to Microsoft for 2 days and I've uninstalled and reinstalled the game AND my profile 3x and still can't play.
