BF6 won’t launch (black window, no error)

Hello, I can't launch Battlefield 6 via Steam. When I press Play, the anti—cheat opens, then a small black widow appears, and then nothing happens - no error message, no crash report.

What I've already tried:

  1. Reinstalled Battlefield 6
  2. Reinstalled EA Anti-cheat

But I found a "hack" to launch the game:

  1. Turn off the computer 
  2. Start the computer without an Internet connection (I pull out the Ethernet cable)
  3. Launch Battlefield 6
  4. When a black window appears, I connect the Internet (plug the Ethernet cable back in)
  5. The game starts without problems and I can continue playing

But I don't want to do this to play Battlefield 6.

Learn more about why the error occurs:

The game opens a small black window, then closes automatically. There are no visible errors.

System characteristics:

  • Windows 11 Pro, 24H2
  • AMD Ryzen 5 3600 NVIDIA RTX 3070 (driver 581.57)
  • 16 GB RAM
  • The game is installed on an NVMe SSD solid state drive
  • I have Proxifier installed - before playing, I turn it off and write "sc stop ProxifierDrv" on the command line, since EA Anti-cheat swears at it, possibly related to this

Thank you in advance for any help.
