Battlefield 3 license issue steam [ Edited ]

[BKaaNA]

I purchased the Battlefield 3 game on Steam (I've played 93 hours) I have a license problem for 2 days https://answers.ea.com/t5/Battlefield-3/FIX-How-to-fix-the-recent-bug-of-BF3-not-launching/td-p/9419...  I tried the solution but my license file didn't come back and I can't enter the game.

Hey everyone, 

A quick workaround we seen to work for some players if you could try. 

• Right click on your EA Game in Steam library
• Click properties
• Go to "local files" tab
• Click "verify integrity of game files"
• Try to launch game again.

Let us know if that helped or not.

Hi there people!
Been having a problem with my Battlefield 3 Steam Edition past last week where it asks me Activate the game on origin when i try to launch multiplayer or singleplayer. 

The problem being I do not have a product key for origin since as mentioned the game is bought on steam. 

Things I have tried to resolve this issue are:
Restarting my PC
Validating my Files on steam
Deleting 1 file and then Validating the game on steam
Deleting Origin Cache
Re-Installing the game 
Running the game as Admin 

So that leads me here asking for help due I'm not able to fix this by myself. 

as a quick edit, This happens on both Battlefield 3 and Battlefield 4 Title

@EA_AticHi, i was having the same problem as the others is and i just tried what you said and it does nothing. the problem is with EA/ Origins it self. the game shows that it is in our library but the games we have associated with EA is tinted white and says we dont have the game it either shows that we need to buy the game again or it dont let us do anything and nothing happens after the game is clicked. so i had to some here to see if others are having the same issue and they are , but it looks like there is nothing being fixed or done about it. i have tried 2 or 3 methods the EA management has been telling every one but looks like it still isnt fixed yet either

I only have the Program Files 86 i can't find any of the other files maybe they go by another name for different PCs i've got an ASUS. I have no idea how to fix this problem hopefully EA or DICE say something soon

hi everybody, i have the same as the many people in this post, i claimed the key from battlefield 3 from a stream gift, i have played it like 2 or 3 hours (campaign and multiplayer too) and after that i close it and play other games, when i tried to play again battlefield 3 it dont opened, literally it dont opened, just "entering in the server or initialing (sorry my english is very bad)" and dont opened no matter how many times i tried, i have search and see so many post and youtube videos about this problem, uninstalling and installing again the battlefield 3, turn off the protection, deleting archives and like 3 o 4 others thing i can do, and nothing workered, please answers me :x, btw i have just the origin edition
