Forum Discussion
I am having this problem as well.
I have tried everything: repairing picnic, cleaning boot, running Origin and PvZ as administrator, updating my drivers, searching compatibility issues, disconnecting my Xbox Controller each time I'm going to open it...nothing works.
The best I can do is having luck, usually when the game denies to open, it just keeps failing for a while until it decides to run.
My PC arrives to the minimum requirements, but not to the recommended ones.
I never have had this problem with GW2, I really hope there is a solution.
Hey @BigBoyHumi @lopasi
Thanks for the information you provided.
Can you try doing a clean uninstall/reinstall of Origin?

You can also try creating a new temporary Windows User account, and see if you're able to launch the game under that Account.
Thanks 🙂

Hello, @iluminatethesky I tried both things:
-Creating a temporary Windows user account: I created another account only to do what you said; but, at the first try, the black screen appeared, and it continued on the second try.
-Uninstall/reinstall of Origin with the easy way: I reinstalled Origin and installed again; the 1st time I oppened the game, it worked perfectly. So, I closed it and tried again to see if the problem was definetly solved; sadly, the black screen appeared again. I tried it 8 times to see if it was less common. 3/8 times the game oppened correctly.
In a positive way, it seems that it is less common than before, at least with these 8 attempts, but the problems still being here.
I have seen, in Techincal Issues, that more people have this problem...I'm not sure, but I have seen that people with this problem usually have DirectX12; but, obviously, this is a generalization.
Hey @lopasi
Have you tried closing any Background Applications that might be interfering with Origin?

You can also tried repairing the "Picnic" File in the EasyAntiCheat folder.
Go to where you have Battle for Neighborville installed, open the EasyAntiCheat folder, and there should be a "EasyAntiCheat_Setup.exe" file there. Open that, select the Picnic file from the drop down menu, and click Repair.
Then try running Origin and Battle for Neighborville as Administrator again.
Thanks 🙂
