    Hi ,

    Thank you for the tips, the tips did not help , there is no way to revert to direct X 11 when you have this issue unfortunately. 

    However I found out that if you delete the "settings" folder in documents the game runs on direct x 11 automatic. 

    Deleting the folder fixed the issue, so if anyone has the same issue id recommend starting with deleting the settings folder which means the player does not have to reinstall the game and other time consuming solutions.

    thank you for the help and support

    🙂

Hey @Berthrond,

Sorry to hear that you are having this issue with Battlefield 1.

Have you tried creating a new Windows Account, and loading the game?

Also, It looks like you're running DX12, which could also cause issues with the game, try reverting back to DX11 and see what happens.

Please keep us posted, and let us know if any of these steps worked.

Thanks 🙂
