EA Anticheat Team@BeWary Let's try this:
1) Go to and download the latest version of EA anticheat from https://cdn.eaanticheat.ac.ea.com/EAAntiCheat.Installer.exe
2) Once downloaded, right click the .exe and choose to run as admin.
3) In this UI, click Uninstall All
4) Close the installer, and open it again (I like to do this for registry editing safety reasons).
5) In the dropdown menu, select Battlefield 2042
6) Click on Install and once complete, close the installer
7) Try launching the game now and let me know how it goes.

@AntiCheatWard This fixed the issue I had in this thread: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/error-quot-start-your-game-from-the-distribution-platform-quot/td-p/14030282
"Start your game from the distribution platform [...]"
After verifying game files in Steam, and then running this (install), it works fine. Maybe not the resolution to OPs issue in this thread, but at least fixes it for that other issue I have.
