So, I got the EA app, and ever since, my game is launching with a 32-bit compatibility instead of the standard 64 bit? I included a screen shot of the shell that pops up. I don't know how to change this. I don't have the Legacy Edition. It happens whether or not I have my mods folder in. This didn't happen with Origin.
Hi all,
I have the same issue. When starting BF 2042 - a second window opens - looks like a .cmd tab but yeah it is Terminal - session.
Changing the settings form "let windows devcicide" to "Windows Console Host" as proposed before solved the issue on my side.
Game works fine and the Powershell window doesn´t open anymore.
How to get to these settings: (Win 11)
Press the start button and type Terminal in the search area
In the Terminal app there is a drow-down arrow ( next to the "+"--sign for a second tab)
Select "settings" and there change from "let windows devcicide" to "Windows Console Host".
Save and thats it.
Now what I am asking myself:
Does this impose any risk on my PC:
Is this game now run in a 32 compatibility environment?
Really?
Any further comments are highly appreciated.
THX & Good Luck

Community ManagerHey everyone,
The EA app team has released an update for the EA app last night that appears to have fixed this specific behaviour of the EA app. Are you still getting the Windows Terminal window?
Due to todays load-freeze I checked the Forum and saw your question.
I setted back te Windows Terminal Setting from "Console-Host" to "Let Windows decide"
I also changed for Terminal the "app-background-permission"-tab from "never" to "Energy Optimized"
When starting the game - Terminal Session does not open any more.
So to my perspective the issue is solved.
Now - get the freeze-isse solved !!!
🙂
Kind regards
