Battlefield 5 wont open


PC.
ive repaired it twice. cleared cache twice. system config done twice(

opened in clean boot thing) drivers updated and opened as admin both the app and the game. and still no success. As per usual. It opens in task manager but closes as i get sent back to ea app. 
So i start battlefield 5 and as i do the ea app minimizes and it looks like it is gonna start. even opens in task manager but then it shuts down and sends me back to ea app no error code nothing. When i first got the game many many years ago i couldnt play it for 2 years for almost the same issue. TF

    Hey @MrP4SCH3N,

    I've removed the product key from your post. Even if it's already been claimed, it's best to keep those types of account details secure and private on a public board.

    As far as the trouble getting Battlefield V to launch correctly, you've gone through some good steps to try and resolve this already. Since those haven't done the trick however, and given you're seeing this minimize the EA app without any error codes, it sounds like this may be due to another program or process blocking the game from launching.

    I would check through these tips on closing any background applications that may be contributing to the issue here, particularly those that may have overlays such as Discord or the Xbox Game Bar.

  • I have everything i can disable disabled on startup and in systemconfig everything but ea background whatever disabled. How come I have NEVER had this issue with any other game than a EA game. ODD

    That's definitely odd @MrP4SCH3N, as if it were an issue with the game itself, we'd see it affecting everyone.

    Since that's not the case, there must be something unique to your system or setup that's conflicting with the game here, so on top of the steps above it may also be worth a clean boot of your system to see if there's any change. 

  • if you could read my first initial message once again. that has already been done. And this has happened over the course of 2 computers. last time i had to wait for 2 years then magically it worked. ODD dont you think "
