    I have had similar symptoms which prevented me to play Titanfall 2 on Steam. What I saw in the logs matched exactly what OP wrote in previous posts.

    I had other problems like Task Manager would freeze, and the Windows Display Options would not load.

    It's when troubleshooting the Task Manager issue that I found a fix which is to disable the DeviceAssociation Service. I have not figured out what (device) is causing this yet though.

    I believe there are 2 ways to do it:

    1- go to Services and disable the service DeviceAssociation Service from there.

    2- if it doesn't work (that didn't work for me), do run > msconfig.

    In the Services tab, uncheck the DeviceAssociation Service and reboot.

    Everything that was not working is now working.

    Hope this helps some of you guys 🙂
