Game "stops working" when quitting on PC

The game "stops working" whenever I quit the game. I am not sure what is causing it to happen. I tried repairing the game in Origin, but it made no difference.

@EA_David Thank you for the response. I changed the screen mode to borderless, and it seemed to solve the problem.

That's interesting, thanks for posting. Testing here the game closes normally, so it doesn't look to be a universal issue.

If you restart your system with a Clean Boot as a test, you can see if the issue re-occurs. If it doesn't, it looks like there may be a 3rd party program running that's a factor. Overlays are often involved when there's weirdness with a game, so you could try enabling these to see if they lead to the crash-on-close that you're describing.

You may want to try changing which screen mode you use (fullscreen/borderless/windowed) and see if this has an impact.
