sign in with your ea account to activate battlefield 1 on this computer
Launching battlefield 1 the second time gets me this window, where I enter my email and password (and I'm 100% sure these are correct - double-checked by logging out and in on ea.com with the same account I have on the EA app), but as a result it somehow says "Invalid email or password" and doesn't let me in.
I have played BF1 a lot before and have never even seen any windows asking to log in AFTER you launch the game from Origin and the now existing EA App.
Nobody seems to have a solution on EA Forums or online, but similar discussions have led me to try:
- Creating a "Origin Games" folder under C:\Program Files (x86)
- Deleting the cache of the EA App
- Deleting the folder "EA App" under C:\ProgramData
The only thing that helped is uninstalling the EA App and BF1 and reinstalling again, but it helped for only 1 game launch. The 2nd launch gets me to this screen, which doesn't accept my email+password.
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.
