battlefield 1 not working

Hey. I bought BF1 through Steam recently as it was on sale. I have downloaded the game, but it won't launch. When I try to open it on steam, it does nothing.

  • Can you uninstall Origin and Battlefield 1 and then redownload Battlefield start the game. It should then install EA app instead. @Markovec1

  • I think I found a SOLUTION for the Steam version

    Go to
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Battlefield 1
    Right key on "bf1.exe"
    Go to "Compatibility" tab and UNtick "Execute as admin"

    Then start the game as usual.

  • I solved it ..

     1 ) I opened steam and tried to launching the game but failed to launch BF1 through EA APP ...
     2 ) I closed EA APP .... updated ORIGIN app ... klicked launch from steam and it worked.  

  • Since Origin has been entirely phased out from windows it seems like, is there any fix? I own the game on steam and not from the EA app and nothing i can do solves this issue. 

  • I had purchased the game during sale through steam, but it doesn't launch when I start it. I had earlier uninstalled and reinstalled the game, but still I'm facing the exact same issue. It's not even showing on my collection in the EA app, and it says that I haven't purchased the game. Someone please advise me on this matter. @EA_Atic

    I'm having similar issues, except I noticed all my games are missing from my library on the ea app.

    I re installed Origin and my games shows backed up in my library, but I still can't seem to play anything battlefield
