I have a question, I have a steam account linked to my origin account I bought Battlefield 2042 form my steam account, Now I want to unlink my steam account with origin will my game that I bought be removed or it will be deleted or simply I linked with other origin account and the game will be there.

Had this problem not so long ago, I just uninstalled steam and reinstalled. No problems since then.

Whats strange for me is that only ONE game is giving me this error - Just Cause 4. All other games run fine.
