Here in this article, i am going to share the details for the EA app error code inst-3-1307 which mainly occurs when users try to download the EA app on their computer/PC.
The error reads, “Something went wrong.”
As per the users’ complaints when they are trying to download the EA app, it does not pass the downloading stage and shows this error.
I also have found that the error comes whether users are trying to download on the internal storage or any external storage device.
As per my research, there can be multiple factors behind the error, and as of now, there is no single fix for this issue. You have to try all kinds of workarounds to fix whatever factor is causing the issue.
Fixes For EA App Error Code inst-3-1307
Fix 1: Check if You Have Enough Space On Your HDD or SSD
One of the main reasons for this error is not having enough space on your HDD or SSD drive. So our first suggestion for you will be to check if there is enough space left on your HDD or SSD drive for the EA app to be installed.
Fix 2: Run The EA App Installer As An Admin
If you have enough space on your HDD or SSD drive but the error is still coming then you can try running the Ea app installer file as an admin.
Here are the steps you need to take,
- Delete the Old EA App Installer file.
- Restart your device.
- Download the EA App Installer file.
- Right-click on the downloaded EA App Installer file.
- Select Run as administrator.
Fix 3: Try To Disable Background Apps And Antivirus/Firewall
If you also tried running the EA App Installer file as administrator but still having the issue then disable the background apps under the task manager, as well as temporarily disable your device’s antivirus and firewall.
To disable the background apps go to the Task Manager and select the Processes tab, then check all the apps, and disable those which you don’t need while installing the EA app.
Once you are done with disabling background apps, disable your device’s Antivirus and firewall temporarily.
At last, check if the error still occurs.
