Been trying a bunch of workarounds and moving the game to my space-limited C: drive was the only thing that fixed the crashing.
Things I've tried that didn't work:
- Reinstalling the game.
- Reinstalling the anti-cheat.
- Disable all non-essential Windows services and applications.
- Delete WRC appdata.
- Clear WRC shader cache.
- Run the game with admin and compatibility modes.
- Update drivers.
- Disable Steam overlay.
- Added firewall exceptions
- Unplug USB devices.
- Verify integrity in Steam.
- Run an SFC filesystem check.
Windows Event Viewer showed an error saying "EAAntiCheatService. Failed to obtain Origin directory".
Specs:
Windows 10 Pro Version 10.0.19045
Nvidia GameReady Driver v565.90
GPU: GeForce RTX 3090
CPU - AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D
RAM - 4x8GB Corsair Vengeance 3200MHz DDR4
Secure Boot - Enabled

Same problem here.
The game just shuts down halfway during the EA-intro, there is no error-message.
It was working flawlessly yesterday and the only thing I've done today is to install the latest Windows 10 update.
(I'm using Steam-version)
What is going on????
EDIT.
Removed the Windows 10 update and now the game is working again!!!
The update causing the problem is KB5045594.

So @EA_Groguet is EA working on a fix for this issue? I previously asked you, with no reply, if it can be rolled back to before the update, so I can play the game that I paid EA for? As others I have tried every fix mentioned in this thread without luck. Really fed up with the lack of updates or information.

@Dodgeuk45 Out of curiosity, have you tried putting it on the C: drive?
Then again might not be possible for you depending on storage capacity.
