Re: Can't launch BF2042 and BFV via Steam
@Rokebo73 I found a solution, and it's related to the EA App itself.
My EA App (C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\EA Desktop\EA Desktop\EADesktop.exe) was set to run as administrator, and it still never worked. So today I had the following idea:
1. Run the EA App in Windows 8 Compatibility Mode + Administrator Mode. And it worked.
After the EA App first successfully ran the game (both battlefield 2042 and Battlefield V), I closed the EA App and did the following:
1. I removed Windows 8 compatibility mode (I left only administrator mode). And it continued to work.
Maybe it was some initial configuration that the new EA App should have done right after its update, and it wasn't getting it. As soon as I put it in compatibility mode with Windows 8, it managed to complete and returned to running the games normally.
