    Hmmm, the installation log file looks pretty close to mine and doesn't mention any errors.

    Another thing you could try, and make sure you remember your account credentials, so you can log back into the EA App is to try and use the App Recovery setting in the Lines/Hamburger Menu button at the top left of the EA App hover over the Help button and at the bottom is the App Recovery option.

    Maybe see if it will let you launch the game directly by clicking on "C:\Program Files\EA Games\Medal of Honor Airborne\UnrealEngine3\Binaries\MOHA.exe" too?

    Also you could try uninstalling the EA App and reinstalling it with admin rights?

    what am I looking for?

    I already uninstalled the game, repaired the game and I already set the EA app to Admin rights.

    I'm assuming you've bought the game on the EA App and aren't using EA Play (EA Play it could be doing funky stuff with authorisation). You could try rebooting your computer, reloading the EA App.

    If those don't work you could try launching the EA App with administrator privileges and reinstalling or repairing the game. Click the "Manage" button and "Repair" the installation or completely uninstall and reinstall the game. I have the game downloaded and it loads up fine.

    There's also an installation log file (InstallLog.txt) in C:\Program Files\EA Games\Medal of Honor Airborne\__Installer (you can get there by clicking "Manage" -> "View Properties" -> "Show Folder"). Assuming there was some sort of problem with the installation itself you could look through there (if you post it in here be careful as it will show your Windows username).

    If those don't work then I have no idea.
