Hey @Sabretoothl5,

Sorry to hear about this issue you're experiencing.

Here are a few steps that you can try:

1. Make sure you have the Origin In-game Overlay turned off in Origin, and the Battlefield 1 Game Properties in Origin

2. Manually Uninstall/Reinstall Origin:

3. Clear Origin Cache:

4. Clean Boot:

5. Run Origin as Administrator, and the Battlefield 1 exe file in your Program Files as Administrator

Try these steps, and let us know if this worked out for you.

Thank you 🙂

    Thanks buddy, it was uninstalling and reinstalling origin that seemed to work!

    Tried everything else too, but it only actually launched after that!

    Many thanks!
