Need For Speed The Run

Hello,

I've seen many posts about this but the EA Forums seem to be useless and a total waste of time.

I'm on Windows 11 and can't run NFS The Run. I press run, it loads for a bit and then the launcher comes back up.

How is support for EA so primitive?

People that pirate the game can play it but ones that bought it, can't.

It's also not an issue with the PC, as many people have the same issue so EA need to fix this internally.

Please help.

    Hi Darko,

    I understand too but if the game gets old, there needs to be a message from EA "please bear in mind due to the age of the game, launch issues may occur" or something like this as people can still buy it and there isn't a clear way to launch it.

    I tried running for a supported OS but it says I don't have origin and I need origin to play it.

    Please let me know how to fix this, I admit I am frustrated because pirates play it and I can't although I've paid.

    Thank you for your patience with me as I know it's not your fault.

    Hey DEV1L18​ understand how frustrating it can be, but important to remember that it is a 15-year-old game you are trying to run on an OS that did not exist back then.

    When the issue occurs, do you see an error message of any kind?

    Have you tried running in compatibility mode for a supported OS?

    Let me know and we can go from there.

    Darko
