BATTLEFIELD1

Hello, I have a problem with the game Battlefield 1. Namely, every time I want to play it I have to activate it again. I will add that the game is purchased on EA application. I have repaired, reinstalled and contacted support. Unfortunately the tips I received did not help at all. I was sent back at the end here to write a post and look for help.

    I may have found a solution while having the same issue with Battlefield Hardline.

    I think apparently the old "ActivationUI.exe" does not like to deal with symbols in the password OR with a long password, so I've changed it to be a password with only 10 characters and consisting only of numbers and letters (NO CHARACTERS LIKE *!,.': etc, just numbers and letters) - and bam! It worked!

    I will try it on BF1 later when I re-install it.

    Is your password really long or does it have any special characters in it?

    Sadly that's not the case. I have pretty simple password, without any special characters. I will try to change password to even simpler version, with 10 characters.
