I clicked Play button but no response, and back to ea app and clicking play again.. and it doesn't end..How can I solve this situation? re-installed 5 times (both ea app and wild hearts) so please don't tell me reinstall / reboot computer.

@EA_Illium My post got deleted because I added a google drive link with a clip, and this site does not allow you to attach mp4 files.Here's my post again with all other detailsPlatform: PC (Steam), Windows 11Region: EuropeError Message: No error message when I try to launch the game, just the error message in the windows event log with the exception code: 0xc0000409 (screenshot attached, language in Dutch though).Date this issue started: The day the trial launched (feb 14), issue still ongoing.Anything else: I press play on steam, 2-3 windows, all from the EA App open and close in a row , I see the Wild Hearts process in Task Manager for a few seconds and then it disappears.Screenshot, DxDiag attached, cannot post clip on this site, but I have one recorded.EDIT:Error Report ID: a3063c08-0453-4e59-be87-96135aa95107

Sadly this did not work for me. Same results as before. Appreciate the support in finding an answer and sharing these though!

@dynisaThis really isn't directed at you; but anyone.... anyone.... who thinks this is an acceptable solution, or even a valid work-around, is part of the problem.

Hello I am having the same issue as @lawrence8102 ,I tried all of the steps you mentionned but it didn't solved the problem.The problem being when pressing play on steam the game doesn't start at all and it only open the "EA app" software.> Also, it is important to note that my Steam account is properly linked to my EA account used on the "EA app" software. I am suspect that the problem come from the EA program called "Link2EA.exe" that can be found here ProgramFiles\Programs\Electronic Arts\EA Desktop\EA Desktop\Link2EA.exe.Infact, when launching the game from steam or from the EA software "EA app" a window open which run the following command line: "C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\EA Desktop\EA Desktop\Link2EA.exe" "link2ea://launchgame/1938010?platform=steam&theme=BOhni" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" ""When looking at the arguments used in the command line it lookslike it starting the right game from the steam library as the steam appID is the correct one.>>> After the window closing while showing nothing (the window from the above commadn line), I can see the process of WILD HEARTS starting in the task manager (with the following command line: F:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\WILD_HEARTS\00_game\target_origin\ex\WILD HEARTS.exe)>>> Finaly the process closes without any error messages (as far as I am able to rapidly browse through the task manager). And the EA software "EA app" opens again in my library showing the game WILD HEARTS being installed through steam.Hope this give some information to work with and do not hesitate to answer me for any additional information that could help you in anyway possible.

When I installed the game I disabled fullscreen optimizations as per someone's suggestion. At the same time, I ticked "run as admin" in the compatibility options for WildHearts.EXE, I'm just used to do it I guess...

It just wouldn't start. When I unticked that, it worked.

Find the executable in \steamapps\common\WILD HEARTS\00_game\target_origin\ex , go to the Compatibility tab and make sure that "run as administrator" is NOT TICKED. That solved it for me!
