Battlefield Games Will Not Launch
Hi, I'm looking for some help! I bought 3 Battlefield games earlier this year: BF1, BF5, and BF2042. I played all three of them for months with no problems. And then beginning last week... none of t...

Fail to launch game / if the game won't start
To enable administrator mode
you need to navigate to c-programs / EA games / battlefield 2042 /
right-click on BF2042 and press Properties and press Compatibility check the box (Run this program as administrator) and press apply
Thanks for the suggestion! When I go to C:\Program Files\EA Games the folder is empty. There is nothing in it at all, even with "Show Hidden Files" enabled.
I have desktop shortcuts for all three games after reinstalling them last night. I tried right clicking the BF 2042 shortcut but don't see an option to run as admin.
I don't understand why uninstalling and reinstalling the games didn't replace all those folders. Software can be such a pain....

@LeadM4gnet its possible some issue prefend uninstall/delete even install from programs/folders , maybe some admin rights, or even folder/file issues .
Ya could use REVOUNINSTALLER to uninstall everything , game platform, game, ea ac ect ect
If ya use revouninstaller , tick the box ADVANCED if ya uninstalled the software.it will search for any registry keys , files and folder leftovers and will delete them to when ya select them ALL and deleted them..
Now reboot system and reinstall all again.
PS its possible ya need to manually delete some EA AC and EA folders in appdata roming and local , and also in ProgramData folder.
Cheers (update us and install EA DESKTOP or the platform ya did buy bf2042 on as an ADMINISTRATOR).If none does help, try to add a new account at your windows and start install BF2042/gameplatform and EA AC again.
Still some issues , then check windows and drives for any issues with SFC / SCANNOW and CHKDSK / F
Thanks for replying, man. I appreciate it. I really don't want to install this and try that for weeks, mess up my registry, and get nowhere.
It seems like the problem is either:
1. A corrupted file somewhere on my PC.
2. A corrupted file somewhere at
A) Steam
B) EA
If it's a corrupted file somewhere at Steam or EA I'm SOL. I can't get anywhere in their support feedback loop.
What if I just reset my PC and reinstall Windows? If it's on my PC wouldn't a complete reset sort it out? What do you think?

- you will have to delete bf 2042 and do a new installation of the game.
and be smart and go to documents//battlefield 2042//settings
and save the two files PROFSAVE
PROFSAVE profile
it's settings inside options. in there where you correct
settings at the soldier and and all the driving and flying things.
and correct screen.resolution and HZ
if you save the two files, you are always ready to play quickly, right after an update of the game 🙂
