A fix for NFS Unbound not starting when launched

I had the problem with NFS Unbound not launching and closing after starting and I have found the fix for it. Also remember to update your gpu drivers before starting the game, and here is the fix.

Delete these two folders U:\Users\ *username \AppData\Local\D3DSCache and then delete this also, U:\Users\ *username \Documents\Need For Speed(TM) Unbound\cache and remember to delete both files before launching the game. Delete D3DSCache, and cache folder which is in the Documents folder and the game should launch and everything should work again.

I hope everyone has a good time playing the game because I am really having fun.

  •  Hello everyone 
    i believe i found the solution to fixing the game from not launching in steam or even EA
    the problem is that EA App doesn't even open when you try launching the game from Steam so you need to download the app from google and then press on repair and it should repair the program then you can play the game

  • my nfs unbound is not launching and after launch i got restart the EA app and said that:" SOme featues have been disable beacause the EA app launched from another appllcation" and i still cant launch my nfs unbound

  • Guys, I found a solution , first go to c drive then go to Program Files will find two folder (EA Games and Electronic Arts) add both this folder in exclusion and then also add the game folder in exclusion. then verify game file. after that game will work fine. I don't know why every time I verify game data steam find some missing data again re download those data. I don't know why this happen. sorry for my poor English.

    Hey Everyone, 

    I wanted to check in with this thread after today vol 8 update and check if this was still happening?

  • I'm having the same problem, I've tryed everything. I try to launch the game both on steam and EA App. It pops a launching screen, the EA app closes and then opens again and the game doesn't launch.

  • Thats exactly what is happening to my game now , i tried a lot of stuff but nothing works

  • I managed to fix it after trying everything. then I entered the ap folder, I deleted everything manually, then I uninstalled the application, after that I entered steam and launched the game, then the ap was automatically reinstalled
