  • Run the game as Administrator:

    Go to the Origin games folder (C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Battlefield V) and find BFV.exe. Right click it and go to properties, then compatibility and check the box next to Run this program as administrator.

    Do the same with Origin:

    Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin and right click on Origin.exe and go to properties. Then go to compatibility tab and check the box next to RUN AS ADMIN.

    Disable Origin in game:
    In Origin - Application settings - Origin in Game - disable Origin in game

    Preform a Clean Boot

    • Open the Start menu by clicking the Windows icon in the bottom left of your screen.
    • Type msconfig in the search box and press Enter. This will bring up the System Configuration window.
    • Click on the Services tab.
    • Check the box to Hide all Microsoft Services, then click the Disable all button to the right
    • Click on the Startup tab, then Open Task Manager.
    • Once the list fully loads, right-click and choose Disable on each of the programs listed.
    • Close the Task Manager window to go back to the System Configuration window.
    • Click OK to save your changes, then restart your computer.

    Please clear your temp files:

    • Press the Windows key and "R" at the same time
    • Into the new window, type or copy & paste:  %temp% and  hit "ENTER"
    • Now your Windows Explorer should have brought you to the "C:\Users\>your user name<\AppData\Local\Temp" folder. > Delete all files and folders in it.
      (If some files or folders can't be deleted, reboot and try again.)

    Than clear your Origin cache.
    All settings in Origin (only in Origin not in the games) are back to default settings after this.)

    • Close Origin completely.
      (right click on the Origin symbol in the task bar > close)
    • Press the Windows key and "R" at the same time.
    • Type or copy and paste "%ProgramData%/Origin" (without quotes) into the new window > hit ENTER
    • Delete all the files and folders in the Origin folder, except for the "LocalContent" folder.
      (The "LocalContent" folder must remain untouched.)
    • Press the Windows key and "R" at the same time.
    • Type or copy and paste "%AppData%" (without quotes) into the new window > hit ENTER
    • Now your Windows explorer should have brought you to your "C:\Users\>your user name<\AppData\Roaming" folder.
    • Delete the "Origin"  folder inside the "Roaming" folder.
    • In the address bar of your Windows explorer click on "AppData".
    • Open the "Local" folder.
    • Delete the "Origin"  folder inside the  "Local" folder.
    • Restart your PC. and test.

  • Hello @AmyFogaz,

    Can you put your DxDiag in an attached file?

    - Press the Windows and R keys at the same time
    - Type DxDiag in the window that appears, then you click on Save all the information and you save the file where you want.
    - Then to attach the .txt file to your message, just click on Choose file .
