Though games that had been installed with Origin continue to work in the EA app, it looks like EA has changed the method of storing data so GLC is now not detecting newly installed games as installed.

GameFinder's wiki offers a couple of solutions.

Fixed in PR #67

Note that the encrypted .json file includes both installed and not-installed games, but the actual name of the game isn't provided. There's a few fields that I can use in a pinch, but often none of them are quite right. It does provide a registry key where the name can be found, but of course that only works for installed games. So PureOrigin.API is still being used to get the proper names (as well as links to download icons for not-installed games), but that requires the user to enter their name and password the first time.
