Battlefield Hardline Won't Start

Every time I click "play" on Battlefield Hardline, the Hardline cover goes slightly gray, then returns to normal color. After that, nothing happens. It doesn't open my web browser or any error reports or anything. Please help. I am running windows 8 64-bit, my processor is an AMD FX(tm)-8320 Eight-Core Processor (3.50 GHz), and I have 8 GBs of RAM. I am also using Google Chrome as my web browser, but i can switch to Explorer or Firefox if needed. (Google Chrome x32)

I figured it out, I had to change from google chrome being my default browser to firefox.

Hi @blureal
if you use AVG or Avast, to turning off or to add BFH.exe to exemptions will not fix the problem. You must to use other antivirus. If this is not fixing the problem, please let me know here.

That is not a solution. One should not be put i the position of having to uninstall their choice of Anti virus software. My suggestion is EA either fix the issue or dump the use of Origin all together when running Battlefield Hardline for either single or multi player use.

I finished Battlefield 3 and Battlefield 4 and today wasted whole day to try and launch Battlefield Hardline. Yes in 2020 Corona time. Finally added origin folder to Anti-Virus exclusion and problem is solved. Phew.
