@Boldi_Verbandton same 🙂 Tried all of the below to no change at all. Great job EA!!!
1- Checked my internet connection, it is stable and fast.

2- Uninstalled with Revo Uninstaller and reinstalled the app multiple times.

3- Ended task on the EA background services.

4- Set EA App to run as administrator

5- Cleared the app data cache for anything EA related.

6- Turned on Unicode time setting (?) or similar as another thread suggested that

7- Turned off secure boot in BIOS as another thread suggested that

8- Updated all drivers

9- Unplugged the PC waited and plugged back in.

10- Checked for corrupt files/ hardware

11- Tried to create a separate admin account in Windows to open it.

12- Attempted to open an EA game through Steam AND Epic and NEITHER can get EA to open, even if I had those programs install the EA app.

    Same problem, Battlefield V won't launch.  Did Revo uninstall, reinstalled, cleared cache, tried admin mode.  Still won't launch.  

    EA is there a fix for this?

      I've tried everything in every thread and can't get the app to work. 

      EA are you going to help all these people with this issue or just keep ignoring us??

        I also had these problems, i deinstalled mcAfee even though i never used it or had a subscription. That fixed it
