Unable to load library dbdata.dll error

Hello everyone,

I recently bought the Battlefield 2042 from Steam.

Here is my problem. An error appears after starting the game and loading anti cheat window, which is: "Unable to load library dbdata.dll".

EA support advices were useless

the things that I tried to solve this problem:

  • Tried deleting file "dbdata.dll" in the game directory and repair the game from Steam.
  • Tried to erase EA and install it again.
  • Tried to erase the game and install it again
  • Tried to install/fix all Microsoft Visual C++ files.
  • Tried clean boot
  • Tried to erase my antivirus program (Avira)
  • My internet has no restrictions.

There is one post about this problem on this forum and it didn't worked for me (https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/Unable-to-load-library-dbdata-dll-error-when-launching-the-game/m-p/10997696)

I wish you could help me.

My system:

AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6 Core processor

16 GB RAM

Nvidia RTX 2070 Super

500 GB SSD and 2TB HDD

Windows 11
