Installed Game Recognition Failure #60

Managed to run the compiler on rustc 1.96.0 nightly and build the full app, log in, and boot up NFS hot pursuit 2020 remaster
It recognizes NFS Heat, NFS Payback, NFS HPR, and NFS Unbound correctly and launches them all.
EA : NFS Payback / NFS Heat
Steam : NFS HPR / NFS MW12 / NFS Rivals / NFS 2015 / NFS Unbound
However, It is not recognizing 2012 nor 2013, and 2015 glitches out trying to find it.
I also redownloaded NFS 2012 completely but that changed nothing to maxima's perception, this is also my target game.
Included are main images during failure & installerdata xml uploads of my 3 problem games.
NFS 2012 is my main reason behind getting onto maxima and ditching EA's trashy app.

EDIT : looking through the XML's myself for 2013 & 2012 VS the others (exclude 2015), then windows registry itself- neither of them properly applied a reg key that maxima could look at. might be one piece to why its saying it cant find the path.

EDIT 2 : after installing Skate4, NFS 2015 seems to have .. fixed itself somehow and is fully booting up- however, game complains that " Connection to Origin has been Lost, Application will now quit ".
