Everything seems to start normally, I see the game launch window pop up, then the anti cheat, then I get a command prompt window and it closes nothing happens. I've attempted to get ahold of customer...

    Hey, can you try a clean boot to see if any programs are messing with Battlefield 2042 and turn off any overlay programs, such as Discord or Nvidia experience.

     

    Can you add a Dxdiag so we can see what hardware and drivers you have? 

    Also can you note down any troubleshooting you have tried. 

     

    Let me know if this works or not for you. 🙂

Totally agree! From day one I've had problems launching this game. Now, I'm getting the same issue as you all on this thread.

I've done everything that everyone else tried without any joy.

I do enjoy playing this game, but you nailed it Col when you said it was becoming more trouble than it's worth.

The last post was 3 weeks ago. Have any of you been contacted and given a solution?

Thanks in advance for any help anyone can give.

Any screenshot , if there is an error , would be nice !

    Thanks for coming back to me Rokebo, I really appreciate you taking the time to reply! Most times the EasyCheat popup appears, then disappears, then nothing.... When that doesn't happen, I get the CreateFile failed with 32 error (which has only started happening in the last week)

    I've uninstalled and reinstalled onto a different SSD drive, several times.

    I've tried the clean boot.

    I've tried other solutions such as setting the EasyCheat process startup to Automatic instead of the default Manual.

    I've gone through the process of doing a full removal of Origin (reg entries etc...)

    Best as I can tell my drivers are up to date.

    etc...

    etc...

    etc...

    I just ran a dxdiag and tried to attach the text file to this post, but when I tried that Edge just froze and started grabbing a ton of resources. Any thoughts on that?

    Thanks again for your time!

      Should have mentioned....

      dxdiag showed no issues and virus scanner reported all clean.
