Battlefield 1 is not launching, tried everything

Battlefield 1 not launching at all. I press play (doesn't matter if it's on steam or EA app), it says "preparing game", closes the EA app, then opens the EA app again while stopping the launch of BF1...

    I managed to fix the issue by doing these, it also sped up the launching time of BF1 and kept it at it's highest performance.

    This is what I did:

    Uninstall BF1 from steam and then delete the Battlefield 1 folder in C:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Battlefield 1

    Delete the Battlefield 1 folder from the Documents folder

    Update my graphics driver once again

    Once Battlefield 1 downloads, restart my laptop

    Run BF1

I tried doing what I can such as running DISM restore health on the command prompt and turning on DX12 but to no avail, I encountered another problem on the game:

I launch the game and then check task manager for BF1

It stays as a background process in the task manager

It still does the memory going up and then dropping to 500-700 mb memory when it reaches 1.1k-1.4k mb memory thingy for a few minutes

The new thing now is that CPU usage of bf1 suddenly drops from about 8%-6% to 0% and then it freezes the memory usage in place

I had to end task BF1 to be able to try running it again, this is the crash dump when I terminated the app, it's a .dmp file

and also, I can't open BF1 at all now even if I restart my laptop.
