Mass Effect 2 doesn't start

★ Apprentice

Using Origin, Mass Effect 2 does not launch.

 

It says syncing cloud data then nothing.

 

Avast recognised it was trying to launch and added it to a list of games, but the game didn't start. Never played it before either.

@CursedDice

 

And now I see your thread.

 

Try this:

Rename "MassEffect2.exe" to "MassEffect2Launcher.exe"
Rename "ME2Game.exe" as "MassEffect2.exe"

 

Test the game.

 

if that don't works, create a DxDiag in text file format, also go to your Reliability monitor (Press the windows key and "R" at the same time and copy or type "perfmon /rel" (without the quotes) in > ENTER and look if it has ME2 entries.

 

 If yes double click at the last one, copy it to the clipboard, (Bottom left corner) save it to a text file and load it up together with the DxDiag. You can do that with the "choose file" button at the bottom right corner of the reply window.

I managed to start it by finding the actual executable and launching it that way. Might try your solution to see if Origin can start it
