Hey all,

 

After attempting to run the game, I receive the attached error every time - I have also uninstalled 3 times, redownloaded and attempted to relaunch.

 

Made sure all the drivers were up to date to and was able to play the Closed Alpha without any issues - anyone else have this issue or tips on how to resolve?

It is a very easy fix guys. all you have to do is install the windows media feature pack for Windows 10 Pro N

Here is the link to Microsoft :

 

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/mediafeaturepack

 

choose the proper version of windows and install and restart and then run a check on the game files and it should run perfectly

I am also having the same issue.  Run as administrator also with no effect.  Running Windows 10N, might be the issue.  EA never gets demos ready for Windows Professional.

I'm also using Windows 10 Professional N, 64 bit. No cigar on running as admin either.

I'll double check when I get home but I was sure that had been previously installed as well due to other issues I've had in the past. 

 

I'll report back in when I have a chance to test it.

After doing some looking, turns out I had uninstalled the Windows Media Feature pack as it had caused issues when upgrading Windows to one of the Creator updates. After reinstalling the one for Windows 10 1803, 64-bit and restarting, Anthem now successfully launches. 

 

Hope this helps others too!

I have tried this, I'm still getting the same error.

 

I should probably add that this is the official launch day (feb 22) that I'm having this issue.
