BF6 shuts down after startup (closes at Black screen)

Hi, may I ask if performing a clean boot also didn’t help? Please provide your Event Viewer logs / a DxDiag report so I can give more targeted suggestions.

ever got this fixed? Having the same problem

Hi, sorry to hear you’re running into this.

Based on troubleshooting steps previously shared by the community, you can try the following:

1. Disable DRS (Dynamic Resolution Scaling)

Go to:

Documents\Battlefield 6\settings\steam\PROFSAVE_profile

Find "GstRender.DRSEnabled" and change its value to 0, then save the file and restart the game.

2. Run the game/program as administrator

If the service still will not start, please make sure the required permissions are set correctly and that you clicked "Yes" when the Windows UAC prompt appeared.

3. Check your antivirus software

Please make sure you have added the anti-cheat related files to your antivirus whitelist:

• EAAntiCheat.GameServiceLauncher.exe in the game directory
• the anti-cheat service located in C:\Program Files\EA\AC

If that is difficult to set up, you can also try temporarily disabling your antivirus before launching the game to see whether that resolves the issue.

4. Adjust Windows Exploit Protection settings

• Open Windows Security → App & browser control → Exploit protection → Program settings → Add program to customize
• Find and select bf6.exe
• Return to the Exploit Protection settings for bf6.exe and click Edit
• If any settings are turned On, especially Force randomization for images (Mandatory ASLR), choose Override system settings and switch it Off
• Click Apply to save the changes

5. Repair or reinstall the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributables

If none of the steps above help, including performing a clean boot, please share the following so we can take a closer look:

• Event Viewer logs
• DxDiag

Thanks for your patience.
