Here's the solution of what worked for me, you just got to downgrade the EA Desktop Client.
1) Go to the EA Desktop client folder, normally "C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\EA Desktop"
2) You should have two folders there, one named "EA Desktop" and another named "outdatedEADesktop".
3) Delete the "EA Desktop" folder and renamed "outdatedEADesktop" to "EA Desktop" (MAKE SURE THE SPACE IS THERE AS WELL)
4) After that, just relaunch and it should work
I've been on this for a couple days and tried almost everything. I hope this gives people relief.

I THINK I FIGURED IT OUT!!!!
Go to the properties on the .exe file and uncheck the "run as administrator" box. I am pretty confident this will solve the issue! It worked for me!!!

I have the same issue with battlefield 5 with gamepass pc on EA Desktop. Has anyone found a solution yet? I tried to allow it in firewall and add exception to antivirus but still no luck. Also the solution twistdd mentioned doesn't work for me cause there is no folder named outdatedEADesktop since I recently downloaded EA Desktop and haven't gotten any updates yet.

I read in a different forum, that someone had success launching the game after creating a new local administrator account under windows, deleting the old account and the game and reinstalling the game under the new account. This sounds like a lot of work, but it might be worth the try.

I only have the EA Desktop folder inside the EA Desktop folder, I don't have the outdated one.

One quick fix you could try is not running the game as an administrator. Worked for me

Just reinstall the app. That worked.
But EA, get this app into a working condition asap - this is Anthem bad.
