FIFA 20: Stuck at config/launcher, cannot launch game

Hi admins and everyone,

I have a question about FIFA 20. So the thing is I can't get the game to turn on for some reason. I own a legitimate copy of the game from EA App/Origin. Whenever I open the .exe file it only shows the config, and when I press play EA App just briefly appears for like 1 second saying "Preparing game" then stop. However I did saw the game popped up on Task Manager, only no game tab launched. 

I have tried many methods suggested by the forums and Reddit but none seems to work, for example, run as admin for both EALauncher.exe and FIFA20.exe file, clear EA App cache, repair the game multiple times, launch from desktop, launch from game files, offline load then reconnect,... Pretty much every suggestions available onsite but nothing works. 

Hopefully you guys can help me out with this. Much appreciated!

    I found a little solution helps for me; when you start the launcher, dont click anything and leave it for about a minute, it seems to open up the game this way about 50% of the time, if it doesnt open, close everything and try again.
