Re: Titanfall2... Refuses to launch. (steam version)

I ended up on the forums after having the same issue. Fresh PC, Steam, EA, and Titanfall. The answer ended up being right in the eventviewer in the System log: 

"Application popup: Titanfall2.exe - System Error : The code execution cannot proceed because MSVCP120.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem."

Even though I watched Steam install all the MS VC++ prereqs beforehand, it didn't get them all. The 2013 x64 binaries were missing, so I installed that one and the game launched immediately after that (attached screenshot). You can find all the VC++ redistributables here: Latest supported Visual C++ Redistributable downloads | Microsoft Learn

Hopeful it's the same for others who had this bad experience to start!
