Solution - Battlefield 3 not launching via Steam

If your Steam version of Battlefield shows in Steam, Origin, and Battlelog that your game is running but your game never launches please try the following steps in order:

1. Uninstall Battlefield 3 in Steam
2. Hold the Windows key + R.
3. In the command box that opens, type %ProgramData%/Origin then click OK.
4. Go into LocalContent folder and delete Battlefield 3's folder
5. Navigate to This Pc /Local Disk (C🙂/Program Files (x86)/Steam/steamapps/common and delete the Battlefield 3 folder (your location may be different if you didn't use the default installation location)
6. Restart your PC
7. Install Battlefield 3 on Steam. Hit Play in Steam to finalize Installation
8. Join a server via Battlelog while Steam and Origin are both running.
