Updater for Battle Field Bad Company2 failed on Windows8

★★ Novice

MY order reference No. 16338253123

Installed the game today but it says that my version is 602574 and needs to update to 795745.  But when the updater runs, I get an error message which says that I must logon as administrator.

 

For windows 8 I am the administrator.  Can you help me with this problem or I think the 20 EUROs wasted online.

I had the same issue. Go to C:\Program Files\Origin Games\Bad Company2 (or program files x86 if running 64bit Windows) and right click on BfBC2Updater and select Run as Admin.

Updates perfectly then Standard smile

I own both battlefield 3 and bad company 2 but when i tried to open bad company 2 it said the same thing as you. I just tried what the other guy suggested but in my origin games folder there is nothing. I play battlefield 3 all the time so i dont know why there are no files there. Can anyone help me on that? Or am i just screwed?
