Re: Mirror's Edge Fails to Launch

Thanks a lot for the help @mayafps_1. I have just installed the game into a different location other than the default location for games chosen by EA App which is (C:\Program Files\EA Games),and it finally worked. The game launches fine using EA App now. Also, there was an issue of low frame rate that used to happen in Origin when you launch it directly from Origin and you had to launch the game from the game .exe file inside the game folder. Now that is also fixed with EA App.

I think your solution makes sense since Program Files is a protected system folder for 64bit apps and Mirror's Edge is a 32bit app. Therefore, maybe something in the game installation code is sensitive to 64bit apps only installation location. Also, there is another possibility that EA fixed the issue with a recent patch. Anyway, if this is true then EA has to change the default installation folder to (Program Files (x86)) like in Origin which used to work for everything.

Thanks again for your valuable information.

It doesn't work for me, I installed the game on the secondary disk, but the game doesn't start, it gives me an error! And the support isn't much help! I really don't know how to fix this error!
