Do you start DA2 from a shortcut?
If so try to start the game directly from your Origin library.

Hi, can you restart the Origin client as an administrator, and try to launch the game from its library again?

I’m having the same issue with dead space 3. I have a Xbox game pass along with ea play. I try to launch the game from the ea desktop but it just gives me the same message. I use my laptop surface pro windows 10

Is that a new surface pro X?
If so, that is an ARM based machine.
Dead space 3 is a 32bit AMD/Intel compiled application that would need to run in the build in 32bit emulator, and I guess it don't likes that.
I don't know if there is a workaround for that, I would suggest to look in surface or ARM centred forums.

I have the same problem on the Surface Book 2. A simple run as an administrator did not affect anything. By running the game in the compatibility mode "the program requires additional permission", it turned out to achieve an error in EA Desktop, instead of an error in the DA 2 activation program.
Using Origin, the game works without problems. He also downloaded the DLC, which EA Desktop could not do.
