Need for Speed™ Most Wanted Won't launch

Need for Speed™ Most Wanted Won't launch The only way i can play after shutdown my PC is by reinstalling it every single time. C'mon EA help us.

Hey @AfterRose do you get an error message if you try to launch it a second time, or what happens exactly that forces you to reinstall?

    Hi @AfterRose 

    Thanks for the information! does this also happen if you try launching via Steam?

    Also if you have not yet can we give the following a try?

    1. Try running the client and game as an admin
    2. Verify the game in via your Steam library
    3. Check for other applications that may be limiting EA App or Game performance
    4. Run the System File Checker tool, then Check for Windows and GPU updates  
    5. Restart your device in Clean Boot mode first then try again.

    Thanks!
