part 3 due to sp@m filters.
So far nothing i listed above has worked for me, which is just great.... and I'm sure to be missing a few thing I tried.
it Fixed my problem
This problem is related with one of Windows Services, the name of this service is Client DNS "DNSCache".
You need to check if your Client DNS "DNSCache" if it is running.
*Solution: this service needs to be fully operational, and if it is not, you need to solve any problems with it.
To complete, open the Command Prompt as Admin, and execute all those commands one by one:
Type " ipconfig /flushdns " and press Enter.
Type " ipconfig /registerdns " and press Enter.
Type " ipconfig /release " and press Enter.
Type " ipconfig /renew " and press Enter.
Type " netsh winsock reset " and press Enter.
Restart the computer.

By any chance were you using anything like a VPN (including split tunnels with or without bf42 on it) before or while playing BF?
If so, the ipconfig /flushdns && ipconfig /registerdns should be just enough.

I will use this method for several other things. It is funny i'm in IT, but never used this steps in such order. It didn't help me resolve my day 2 issue, but i can see myself using this steps in some cases.
I never had this many problems trying to get app to launch. Servers are central Europe. Not sure what is going on.

I have solved my own problem, if someone is stuck in a login loop on an outdated app and app just wont start. There is a neat solution, you can check the topic.- 3 years ago
Haha that's just great, one of the things I forgot to list was to re-run the EAappInstaller found in `Battlefield 2042\__Installer\Origin\redist\internal` and the EAAntiCheat.Installer.exe found in `Battlefield 2042\EAAntiCheat` or `C:\Program Files\EA\AC`
What was the tool found in your `C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\EA Desktop\outdatedEADesktop` ?
As I have `C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\EA Desktop\EA Desktop` `C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\EA Desktop\StagedEADesktop\EA Desktop` and `C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\EA Desktop\StagedEADesktop\Destager`
