Hi @EngineerPortrait,

This issue may be due to various causes, but the most probable one I believe is a certain program interfering with the game launch. I suggest performing a clean boot, which this article shows how to do. Additionally, it might help to close any background applications you have running and see if that solves the problem.

    @gksvr1 That article is in Russian, also I managed to solve it, by using my method again but deleting every single EA/Origin folder in AppData. Wouldn't be surprised if I would have to do it again after I reboot though.

      @EngineerPortrait, That's really weird, I have fixed the links and It should be displaying in English now.

      Anyway, great to hear that you managed to solve it! If you ever face any issue, don't hesitate to let us know!

      Have a wonderful day!

        @gksvr1 Thank you, though I wouldn’t call this a solution to my problem since this is the temporary fix I’ve basically been using ever since I had this issue, it always comes back it seems.

        The article keeps redirecting me to the Russian one regardless by the way, even on Tor. (It doesn’t really matter)
