This might be a far fetch but I do remember how I managed to fix my problem. I had the same error code and did all of the steps and it did not work. The only thing that miraculously fixed it is either disabling EA Play overlay and if that fixes it do nothing. If it doesn't then enable Nvidia Overlay. I know it sounds a bit crazy but I am almost 100% sure that's how I got it fixed. But do try disabling EA overlay only first and then playing. If none of these fix it here is my last ditch attempt quoted from another thread that goes through every possible thing you can try to fix the problem.
Hmm, I will list everything I've done that may have contributed to the fix in my case.
The things I have underlined are the fixes I listed in the previous post I made.
- Updating EA Anticheat
- Repairing EA Anticheat (same way as updating, just clicking repair in the EA Anticheat installer software)
- Allowing battlefield into the firewall (both private and public)
- Allowing all EA related applications into the firewall (both private and public)
- Allowing EA Anticheat and EA Javelin Anticheat into the firewall (both private and public)
- Adding Windows Defender exclusions to the Battlefield game folder and EA desktop folder
- In Windows Security > Virus & threat protection > Virus & threat protection settings > Exclusions > Add an exclusion > Folder
- Add C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\EA Desktop
- Add C:\Steam\steamapps\common\Battlefield 2042
- Command prompt network commands
- Press the Windows key and enter "cmd" and run as administrator
- Paste the following and press Enter
- ipconfig /flushdns
- ipconfig /registerdns
- ipconfig /release
- ipconfig /renew
- netsh winsock reset
- restart pc
- Give both anticheat services admin permissions through properties
- Setting dns client from disabled to automatic
I am not sure which of these are necessary, but I listed all of them anyway.
