Hey @ROE_Hobbie.
It's definitely strange that it's only happening with BFV. Usually that error comes up when Origin is looking for a system file and is having trouble finding it.
When you have a chance can you try running the Windows System File Checker to see if that helps at all? If there's a missing or corrupted file that might help fix this. You can find more info on how to run it over at the Microsoft Support Website. Let me know how that goes when you have a chance.
Thanks!
