  • I’ve had the same issue as you tried all the steps everyone recommended but nothing worked I cleared cache, ran as admin, uninstalled and re-installed the game 4+ times but nothing worked but then after clicking on ea fc 24 and scrolled down it said to upgrade to pro to get the ultimate addition so I did thinking I would just install the ultimate version and it would work and it basically did after upgrading to pro ea let me launch the game so far the only fix I know  is upgrading. Still sad that EA IS VERY MONEY HUNGRY.

    The solution that worked for me:

    I had the same issue, no matter what, the game failed to launch (Battlefield Bad Company 2), but I found another solution that worked in my case.

    I first tried reinstalling the EA App, but it did nothing, still got the error.

    What actually worked was running the game as an admin from its desktop shortcut (right click the game icon on desktop and 'Run as administrator') instead of trying to launch it from within the EA App. (but with the app running in the background/taskbar).

  • Everything else failed.. but found my fix after 4 reinstalls. 

    Delete directory C:/ProgramData/EA Desktop

    Restart.. and everything works!

  • I had the same problem I jus put my game in offline mode then turned online mode back on and it worked for me 

  • This worked for me. I found the executable in the install folder and ran as administrator.
