Game not loading on startup

Ever since installing the game, on startup it will be a black screen with the loading wheel in the top right. I have waited 30min before and nothing will happen. I have similar issues with BF5 as well, so I thought it might be Origin or Avast AV.

I have:

Run both applications in admin

Cleared Origin cache

Deleted any old Bf1 profile data in my documents and local content

Repaired game files

Updated game

I have also changed my game library location to D:\Origin because I have my games on a separate hard drive. DX diag uploaded, I don't know what else to do....

    Okay you have a lot of apps lol.

    Lets run Windows in safe mode and try run the game, just incase its a service affecting the game.

    1. Press Windows logo key + X on the keyboard.
    2. Hold the Shift key while clicking Restart from Shut down or sign out menu.
    3. Select Troubleshoot > Advanced options > Startup Settings >Restart.
    4. After the PC restarts, a list of options will be shown. Select the option for safemode with networking.
    5. Then run the game.
