Failure to Launch BF 2042
I have exercised all solutions in the following links - with no success.
I have also reimaged my machine.
After a few minutes of analysis, the problem was solved. Here are the steps that led to the resolution of the problem :
- Uninstall completely EAAntiCheat.GameService via
EAAntiCheat.Installer.exe ->https://cdn.eaanticheat.ac.ea.com/EAAntiCheat.Installer.exe
- Checked and repaired system files via CMD
(always open CMD in Administrator)
sfc /scannow (In first) DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth (in seconde after sfc /scannow is finish)
- Checked the VSS (Volume Shadow Copy Service) via CMD
vssadmin list writers
Grant full permissions to all users for the files :
-> C:\Program Files\EA
-> And the folder where the game is located "Battlefield 2042" (may vary)
- Restart your computer.
- Run EAAntiCheat.Installer.exe, click “Install” for Battlefield 2042.
- Then run EADesktop.exe as an administrator (C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\EA Desktop\EA Desktop)
- And launch the game
- EA App's Cache (Top Left Menu > Help > App Recovery)
- EA App - Repair (My Collection > Tile Dots > Repair)
- Run the System File Checker tool
- Change UAC Controls within Windows
- Reset Windows Host File
- Unplug your modem/router for 5 minutes and attempt to launch again
