Game won't launch

Even though I played the game today, I can't open it now and it kicks me out of the game.

    If the game was purchased thru Steam or Epic, there was a change a couple weeks ago such that EA app is now used instead of Origin. However, the method of starting is the same - i.e. start from Steam, if you purchased from Steam. FWIW - I got the game directly thru EA (Origin) and the game is starting fine.

    Based on something I saw from @EA_Atic, below is a prioritized list of some things you might want to try.

    1. Make sure all overlays are off (mainly for troubleshooting).
    2. In EA app, select "App Recovery".
    3. Reinstall SWBF2 and EA app:
      1. Uninstall SWBF2 and EA app.
      2. Remove any left over folders of EA app.
      3. Reinstall SWBF2 from Steam/EPIC.
      4. It should now install a new version of EA app.

    Let me know if any of those work for you.

Same for me, I was playing on Origin and it was working. Now it works but I cant install mods anymore. With gestionnary task open, the game launching 2-3 second and after, the EA Desktop pop-up and the game closes.
