Mass Effect 3 won't Start

@Thrrax Please follow the instructions in this post, also including anything related to EA app/Origin. New laptop makes me think you might have some bloatware running in the background that could be interfering. 

@Leora85 Thank you for the reply. I decided to take a different approach, and I felt so dumb for not thinking of it 3 years ago. Worked like a charm. Which got me to the conclusion that it's not my laptop, or Win 10. It's the game itself (or at least the international version), seeing that ME2 and ME don't have issues. 

@Thrrax Mind letting us know what you did to maybe help others with the same problem in the future?
