Need for Speed (2015) - game not loading
Hello, wished I didn't had to start a discussion, however it appears that after spending a whole day trying to troubleshoot the hell-ish realm that is the "Application Error" error message, the game still wouldn't launch at all, so I'm checking if there's anything more that I can do or just give up at this point or starting a discussion here, hoping that I will receive some other troubleshooting steps. In regards to what troubleshooting steps I've completed, here's the following:
- deleted the corrupted .dll files
- checked regedit
- checked game files and no missing or corrupted files were found
- ran /sfc scannow through my command prompt as administrator (no problems were found)
- disabled all game overlays
- ran EA App, Steam and NFS2016.exe as administrator
- reinstalled Windows 11 without saving any data
I'm also leaving a screenshot with the error message and a DxDiag file.
