Battlefront does not launch at all after moving over to EA desktop
Hey,
Issue is really pissing me off since it feels like there's probably some easy fix I'm missing. After being forced to move to EA desktop app, Battlefront II (owned on Steam) does not launch.
To be clear, it is only SWBF2 that isn't launching. Other EA games I own on Steam launch perfectly fine (Need for Speed Heat and Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order to be specific)
I have tried just about everything under the sun that I can think of. I've checked and tried multiple different support threads that describe even a remotely similar issue to no avail.
Tried launching the game through Steam and through EA desktop independently of each other.
I've reinstalled both the game & EA desktop app multiple times.
Tried launching it through a mod launcher with no mods enabled.
Tried launching it as an administrator, with and without full-screen optimisation.
Tried temporarily disabling my antivirus and adding both EA app and SWBF2 as exceptions (to allow them to run without interference from antivirus)
Tried "repair installation" and "app recovery" on EA app
I've verified integrity of game files through Steam
It basically appears as though it's about to launch the game. EA pops up a window or two, namely "LinkEA" or "EALink" or something along those lines. It minimises the app as if the game has launched and it's hiding itself in the background (despite the game not actually launching). Once that happens, a couple of seconds later, EA app relaunches itself with no error message or anything of the sort.
I'm actually just completely stuck with no clue what to do or try next.
