I bought BF1, 4, and 5 from Steam, since they were at a discount. However I can launch none of them from Steam, Origin, or the EA Desktop App. I get no error message, when I try to launch I just get send back to Origin. I can launch BF1 and 4 using the Frosty Mod Manager, however, while 1 works just fine, on 4 I get kicked by Punkbuster when playing multiplayer, and 5 just does not work. I tried repairing, reinstalling, installing the Visual C++ thing, checked drivers and updates, running as admin, you name it, but nothing works.
