    @HexaTropgros Hey i fixed my problem guys! try starting origin as an adminstrator and then go to your gamefiles and open there the PVZBattleforNeighborville.exe as an adminstrator 🙂 I'm super happy that it worked i hope it does for you all too!

My issue is similar, Anti-cheat opens perfectly, the game opens in a windowed mode and sometimes runs good(intro, little in game trailer or whatever)until you click and it goes full screen, then it's just black, sometimes with a enlarged flickering mouse and sometimes with no sound. I have no idea on how to fix it. I've been searching and testing solutions for the past 2 days and nothing, tried uninstalling and re-installing over and over, ran it as administrator again and again, even tried opening origin as administrator and trying, I've also cleared me cache, tried repairing the game, changing the file locations for the game and uninstalling when it doesn't work. I've checked my GPU for updates as well as my graphics card and that's all fine and updated. I'm not entirely comfortable doing a clean boot or whatever it's called(i'm not tech savvy)and I don't want to end up damaging my PC somehow. I've left my DxDiag to this post if you'd want to check it out. Any help will be appreciated.
