Re: Game not launching through Steam.

I've had this problem for about 3 weeks now, and i've tried practically every thing the other person has tried to no avail. Is there anything you can do to help my case ?

@EA_Atic  I have tried the methods as follows:

- Restart Computer

- Validating game files multiple times, on Steam and Origin (I own the game on steam) a reason for why on Origin will follow after this list.

- Restarting the game client

- Reinstalled 2042

- Reinstalled Origin

- Disconnected the link between EA and Steam accounts (reason will also follow after the list)

- Task Manager'd the clients

- Attempted a clean boot (I'm unsure if this was done correctly however I had tried it regardless and the amount of possible fixes is highly unlikely this would be the fix)

- Turning off all Overlays

- Checking the Nvidia Drivers

- Checking for all updates (I was able to update the game still, last updated I had attempted was the Liquidators event).

- Deleting Download Cache on Steam

- Launching through the Battlefield Launcher exe

- I always shut down my pc every night so this is a possible fix that would have worked a while ago.

As for what happens when I launch the game:

When I launch the game on steam the game appears to be working fine, sometimes the Easy Anticheat startup shows, sometimes it doesn't, most of the time it doesn't. Then the game goes to "Running" , then changes to "Stop" and then finally crashes and going back to "Play" after a short while (maybe 10-25 seconds), Origin loads up and I'm asked to sign into the client, I sign in no problem then the it takes the client to my games library where the page then crashes and says "looks like we're having some trouble right now, please restart the client or try again later" and I restart both the steam and Origin client and try again only for the process to be repeated. This has gone on for around 3 weeks now, I have recently installed a new version of Windows, whether that solves the problem I'm unsure and will check with you when I try it:

No it doesn't work still after installing the new windows update lol

Also my setup is as follows:

ASUS B450-F Motherboard

Ryzen 5 3600

Nvidia Geforce 1660 Super

32 DDR4 Corsair Vengance RAM

650W Power Supply

NZXT Kraken M22 Liquid Cooling

Another note, I have the same problem for Battlefield 4, with it not launching, just a problem I found with trying it on other games to see if any other games don't work. BF4 is the only one also not working

Good day

This annoying symptom has also found its way onto my system.

Completed 2042 patch update, steam updated and then this problem.

Windows is up to date, as is the Nvidia driver.

I have removed steam, Origin and anticheat, reinstalled and same problem.

Any ideas anyone?

Same Issue here, didnt play for a while (month odd) then now cant start game, steam button changes for a bit, origin launches, then steam button says play again and origin stops.

Tried repairs. etc still not working,

last thing i have read is somethign to do with having dual screens, so might try unplugging my other next....in case that doesn't work, any other suggestions?

Myself i bought the game again through the EA app thinking it was something wrong with Steam, but it does the same thing, gets through EZ and origin screens the wmall window appears in left top corner, says bf2042 at top but is a black screen then goes away and I end back on the EA app screen

Hello ? It's been a week and i've still had no response from you guys about this problem, i have also already contacted EA customer services to no avail either. why is this ? Why are you unable to help me ?

I hope I can hear a reply soon however this is unacceptable, I've had this problem for so long and even customer services are unable to help me ?

The EA app ? I did uninstall and re-install it yes however I own the game on steam, It's worth a shot anyways, how would I reinstall as an admin ?, thanks

@raccoonmcfcright click the downloaded ea app / origin / steam and select RUN AS ADMIN !

Now you will install platform as an admin, also start platform as an admin.
Right click icon from installed platform and selectagain RUN AS ADMIN.
