@Gravxyz Had the same problem. But found out that u have to launch the EA app as ADMIN.
I have the same issue trying to launch Apex Legends from the APP. I did as you suggested "right clicked the app and ran as admin" It did not solve it for me.
Could there have been something else you did to fix your issue?
So I had read that you go to task manager and you will find two EA processes, close the "EA background Services" process (scroll down to find it) then restart the app in admin mode. Then I was prompted with the following: just click Launch and the game runs.
Hi, this prompted for me as well but I am afraid I will lose all my saved progress?? The game's FIFA 22 btw.
Same for me i tried to launch NFS heat and FIFA 22 and stucked at launching . I can enter to game only if I start with a new save from the beginning. It seems like a cloud saves does not work
If I try to replace with cloud save game stucks at launching and clean cache does not help with that
I just had to quickly post a reply to this message. (Although I was having a problem launching Dead Space 3, but I don't think it matters because it seems there is some EA App glitch ...)
I've recently come back to this game and discovered I had to uninstall Origin then install EA App. But Dead Space 3 DID NOT LAUNCH - seemed to go into a loop at launch time but just sits there looking stupid.
I am still on Windows 7 (64 bit) and this is what worked for me:
- Exit EA App
- Windows Task Manager > end processes for EA App (including EA background services)
- click Start > Run > %localappdata%, and delete folders "EA Games" and "EADesktop"
- Go to EA App executable > C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\EA Desktop\EA Desktop\EALauncher.exe
- Right-click EALauncher.exe and Run as Administrator
- Go to Dead Space 3 executable > E:\EA Games\Dead Space 3\deadspace3.exe
- Right-click deadspace3.exe and Run as Administrator
- EA App then pops up a message that says "This game requires permissions" (this is about granting access to launch the game)
- Click OK and launch game!!!
This worked for me, and a big thank you to the person who posted this comment, this is what lead me to resolving my game launching problem!!
Just found the answer to this! Sure, try all the recommendations from EA, but what worked for me after weeks of troubleshooting was making sure virtualization was enabled in the BIOS settings.
