    • Make sure Origin and Steam are closed.
    • Go to your "<drive>:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Mass Effect Legendary Edition\Game\ME3\BioGame" folder.
      (Steam: <drive>:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Mass Effect Legendary Edition\Game\ME3\BioGame" )
    • Delete the "Config" folder.
    • Test.

    If that don't helps:

    • Make sure Origin or/and Steam are closed.
    • Go to your "Documents\BioWare\Mass Effect Legendary Edition\Save" folder.
    • Move the "ME3" Save folder to your Desktop,
    • Test.

Like the subject says, 1 and 2 work fine, I was able to play and complete both games, ME3 however wont start up, just kind of flickers my screen and goes back to the game selection screen. I don't get an error pop up or anything. I really want to finish the series, any help?

Hey @dnolan8, I've moved your post over to the Mass Effect section of the boards. Can you give the steps in this thread a try to see if they help out with your situation as well?

Let me know how that goes!
