Summarize your bug Hi guys! I tried to use my Xbox Game Pass with EA Play included via EA Desktop App. It does recognize my subscription, downloads the game, etc. Unfortunately, every game gives me this error: 0xc000007b when I try to launch it. I've spent ages trying to fix it using multiple tutorials, YT videos. I installed all the .NET Frameworks, re-downloaded games, re-downloaded app, and many more but nothing help. Is there any chance somebody came across that and fixed it? P.S. I'm on fresh installed Windows 10.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)

    EA please FIX THIS. if we cant depend on a usable launcher then no one will play your games. it isnt personal opinion its fact. if nothing works customers leave.

  • I'm having the same issue, ANY game that I can get through the EA Play on Gamepass is giving me a 0xc000007b error. I've gone through so many "solutions" for both, EA related games and overall windows issues. Nothing works.

    The only thing I haven't tried is restoring my windows or starting fresh. This is frustrating... The funny thing is that any game that I previously owned (ex. BF V) works fine. BF4, TF2, Sims, anything else that I didn't already own but have access through game pass, doesn't.

    There are also no corrupted files according to sfc /SCANNOW, all my dll's are in check; the .net framework 3.5 and 4.8 are all working and running. I've re-installed the VC++ for ALL versions multiple times. Literally nothing works. The only issue I have is with games that came from the Gamepass x EA Play mix... Unbelivable.

    Funny thing is that before all this, I used to have EA Play on my own Origin/Ea Desktop acc, and I had managed to play BF4 without issues on the same pc just a couple of months ago. The only thing that has changed is the link I made with Gamepass.

    Tomorrow I'll try a clean start, but I shouldn't have to do this just to be able to play these dang games.
  • @BartPotyThe error code 0xc000007b generally means that the application is in wrong format. For example, trying to run a 64-bit executable on a 32-bit system, or trying to use software compiled for x86 platform on a computer running on ARM-based CPU (although Windows on ARM usually does succeed in doing x86-emulation)
