Battlefield 5 Won't Launch
Battlefield 4 and 5 won't launch. Downloaded both again recently and when I launch the game Origin minimizes and then reappears and the play button highlights again. I've tried clearing Origin cache,...

Bought BF V a few days ago and encountered the same problem. Game won`t start, Origin just refreshes a few seconds aftter launching the game. Since I installed BF V, BF4 has the exact same problem.

Cheers for reporting this.
Have you already tried to launch the game (and Origin) with Admin rights?

- @EA_Leeuw So far I've tried:
-launching Origin, BF4 and BFV with Admin rights
-reinstalling BF4 and BFV
-reinstalling Origin
-launching BFV through the EA App
-Clean Boot Windows
-reinstalling Windows 10
-Update GPU drivers
Other Frostbite Games (ME:A and SWBF2) run fine with no issues at all.- EA_Leeuw@Triggered_Tobi, you've even done a clean install of Windows 10 and you're still experiencing the exact same issue? Hmm, that's indeed very odd.
Have you tried to disable Origin overlay to see if that fixes the issue?
(Make sure to disable it globally in the settings of Origin & the settings of the game itself via right-click on the game tile in Origin > Game settings.)I just redownloaded BFV after a few months off and I am having the same issue as the people in this thread are having. I click play in origin, game looks like it’s launching, then it crashes and origin just pops up again like I didn’t click anything. I tried all the troubleshoots listed and nothing has worked. BF4 and BF1 launches normally. This only started happening when I tried out the EA Play trial. It upgraded me to the definitive version of BFV, but after a week or something I cancelled the EA Play subscription and it put me back on the standard edition. This is when the issue arose.
