I played the game yesterday for several hours on Windows 10.
Then I was not able to start it anymore.
The splashscreen with EasyAntiCheat icon loads all the way to the end two times and then closes without error.
I tried the following things:
Reinstalling Origin, Battlefield 2042, EasyAntiCheat, GPU driver, DirectX, Windows 10.
Running Origin as admin and deleting it's cache.
Doing a clean boot as described on EA website.
Running EA Desktop App as admin.
Disabling Firewall and Windows Defender.
It shows me Error Code 30005 once when launching the game for the first time after EAC install.
After performing these steps the splashscreen with EasyAntiCheat icon loads all the way to the end two times and then closes without error.
There is no relevant information in Windows event viewer.
Customer support was not able to help and the problem persists.

Usually that error means there is something blocking Easy Anti-Cheat from one of its operations. Do you use any other security software aside from Windows Defender?

Hi @Tomatomelette,
What happens if you start your PC in a Clean Boot before you launch BF2042? If there's something running that's causing issues with EAC that might help to get around it.
You can find more info on how to set up a Clean Boot over at the EA Help website. Let me know how that goes once you're able to give it a shot. Thanks!

This same issue happened to me.
After my monitor went to sleep, the sound from the game crashed.
When I restarted the game this error began.
I completely uninstalled the game, ea desktop, everything and upon reinstall the bug persisted.

Thank you for giving that a try.
When you have the chance can you share a DxDiag so we can take a look? You can find more info on how to pull one up at the EA Help website. Once you have the text file please attach it to this thread.
Thanks again.
