Battlefront opens origin instead

Hello guys, I've been having problems for a while now. I got my copy on Epic Games, and it worked perfectly for weeks, maybe a month. Suddenly, it stopped working, showing a well known bug (the game opening with a black screen, flashing white once and staying black until closed). I figured I'd have to repair the game, which i did, and it still didn't work. So i reinstalled the whole game, which presented a different bug, which has been plaguing me for almost 2 months now.

Everytime I try to launch the game, through the Shortcut, the Origin Launcher, the Epic Games Launcher, even the executable file, all these only make the Origin Launcher re-open.

The game never actually launches. I don't want to sound like a crybaby but this is one of my favorite games and having it stop working for no reason with no tangible solution is hard. Please help, and I'll list what DOESN'T work for me:

-Deleting documents folder

-Repairing the game

-Reinstalling

-Getting a fresh install of Origin or Epic

-Editing files on the documents folder (the ones suggested don't even appear for me)

-Disabling Origin In-Game

So, if anyone's reading this, thanks for reading, and have a good day.
