Re: [CLOSED] How to Fix "Your Game Failed to Launch" Error in EA app?

All of the above. There wasn't any issues starting the game from the EA app before, until now and none of the above suggestions work, reading through all posts here. 

"An error on our end caused your launch to fail"

Running Windows 11 Home 21H2, 22000.434 with latest updates.
Cache is cleared
App recovery
Ran game as admin and not admin
Uninstalled and reinstalled launcher
Uninstalled and reinstalled game (Battlefield 2042, only game I own)

Unfortunately, I'm in the same boat as you. I've done absolutely everything I could find. Uninstalled, fresh boot up, windows fire wall, nothing works. I downloaded the Sims 4 through gamepass and I've been trying at this for hours no, but to no avail. Please help.

does ea look at these posts?

They do! If you read through the conversation, they have responded multiple times.

I got an update! I got BF2042 to work and this is how I did it.

Uninstalled the game and EA desktop app.
Downloaded Origin desktop app
Installed BF2042 through Origin
Launched BF2042 through Origin. 
Sometimes it takes two launches for the game to start but through Origin it works. If i do it through EA app; same error message like before.

Hope it helps for others to play BF2042 as well. I Really want a fix for EA app though so the issue remains for this thread.

The problem with this 'fix' is Origin can't be used with Game Pass, which I suspect a lot of us are using. This is seriously some BS. You used to be beautiful EA. I wish I had bought the game on a different service so I could avoid using this POS app altogether. And these workarounds are absolutely ridiculous. If Origin is the only way to make it work, then get rid of this failed experiment known as EA Desktop, and get us Game Pass users on there instead!

I have a easier fix.  All you have to do is find your install folder for the game your trying to play through EA (Beta) App;  In my situation it was the Origin Games folder (C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games).  Right click the game folder and Cut and Paste in to C:\Program Files\EA Games.  Go to the EA App and play/install the game and it should work after downloading/verifying files.  No need to Uninstall the App or your Games. 

I ran into this problem from installing EA Beta App from Origin.  Games will only run from the EA App/ EA Games location as there is no option to point the app to the install location even though it detects that you have the game.

Your welcome EA  🙂

EA games folder goes ALWAYS to C:\ even if install the game to on D:\ on EA desktop named file and so no EA Games file there. 

If you try to put it on EA desktop file it says: "The action can´t be completed because the folder or a file in it is open in another program. Close the folder or file and try again." NOPE NO FILE OR FOLDER OPEN. 

The whole Battlefield 2045 and EA is buggy as hell. You have to restart the whole game after every conquest game for moths now 95% of time and EA account does not work.

Dont know if this has been said, i fixed it by unchecking the run as administrator in the short cut properties. 

have you fixed it, cause i have the same problem and its annoying tbh

Hi All,

Actually this worked for me and I've tried everything else in the thread :D 

I have spoken to ea support and been told the following about the download problems with games, its an ea app bug and they are working on a fix so im told.

Sumit (03/11/2022, 12:59:36): Thanks a bunch for staying online, I just double checked with my team on this. Evidently, this is an on-going issue at the moment. Just like you, hundreds of thousands of players are also impacted by the same situation. 

Sumit (03/11/2022, 13:00:44): Good news is our game teams are on it. They're literally working on a fix as we speak. It won't be long before this gets taken care. Once that happens, this'll be resolved not just for you but for all affected players.

Sumit (03/11/2022, 13:02:07): I don't want to make any false commitment with you but team working on it will get resolved soon it will not take too long.

Sumit (03/11/2022, 13:04:22): It will not take that much of time as we have updates it will get resolved soon.

So can community staff please stop suggesting that people have problems with game blocking etc.... EA have admitted a problem with the app.

I'm having the same issue.. tried literally everything possible. I also look through the logs the EA App creates and found the following error lines:

67 [2022-11-07T20:29:42.150Z] PID: 20544 TID: 18756 ERROR (eax::foundation:😕erializeEnvironmentImpl) Cannot serialize environment: the result is too long, 175734
68 [2022-11-07T20:29:42.150Z] PID: 20544 TID: 18756 ERROR (`anonymous-namespace'::createGameProcess) [GLS] Error getting game launch environment

Doubt any EA is watching this topic but this info should give them enough info to tell us what the problem is.

Thanks! this solve my issues! this is weird!

I saw your post havig the same issue i uninstalled EA games. Downloaded origin app but when log in EA pops up 

This doesn't apply anymore since EA App is categorically forced. Crysis 3 is completely broken now.

So I went into properties and found where it said app recovery under ea app and clicked that, it repaired and then my game launched 🥹

when using the Ea game app the games either fail to launch or take many attempts to start
