EA FC 25 not starting

Hello,

Recently my EA FC 25 stopped working. I start the EA app, press EA FC 25 and initial startup bar appears. This stays for way longer than usual, but then proceeds to the splash screen with a new loading bar. This one, just like the first, lasts for longer than usual and then disappears. Several seconds later it disappears, nothing happens and then de EA App opens on the screen again, never starting the game. This started happening since thursday and hasn't stopped. 

I hope someone maybe knows what's going on, because I can't play the game at all now.

Thanks in advance!

Kind regards.

    I recently purchased FC25 through Steam and encountered the same issue.
    (My system specs: 7900X3D + ASUS TUF 4070Ti Super + 64GB RAM + win11)

    I managed to fix the issue by:

    Running EA App as Administrator
    Running FC25.exe as Administrator
    Opening Windows Defender Firewall and ensuring the game is not blocked
    Opening Virus Threat Protection and adding the game to exclusions

    After doing this, the game launched successfully. However, once I entered the game, my webcam turned on automatically.
    I couldn't find any option to disable it, and due to privacy concerns, I decided to refund the game.

    I hope this issue gets reported to EA so they can fix it.
    I love soccer and have played FIFA on Nintendo, but I still can't play FC25 on PC.
