Game will not launch, also no settings folder

[Ondiis]

Just bought the SW BF2. After download and after pressing Play in Origin (or through GeForce or .exe file) the game will not launch. Only the launch window pops up for a few secs and Origin opens again.

Its similar problem as https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/SW-BF2-will-not-launch-missing-settings-files-and-folders...

I guess I tried all the following - reinstall, repair, put some settings folder in my documents .. nothing worked.

In STAR WARS Battlefront II documents I have these folders only - _Installer, Core, Data, Patch, Scripts, Support and I just added settings folder (without  "GstRender.ShadowQuality" line).

Any advice guys?

Good meme, but honest work! @Ondiis 

Drivers looks nice, just a note your CPU is just below the minimum requirements for SWBF2. 

Could you try to do a new windows user on the PC and then try to start SWBF2 after it.

Hey, @Ondiis, lets-start with some basic items to see if we can find any work around, make sure that all drivers for windows and your gpu drivers are up to date. 

You can also try to do a clean boot to see if there any programs messing with SWBF2 and turn off any overlay programs for example Discord or Nvidia experience.

Let me know if this works or not for you.

Hi @EA_Atic, sadly no change. Tried both ideas

Thanks for the update @Ondiis! 

Can you upload a dxdiag so we can see what hardware and drivers you are using.  

Thanks!

@EminBro if settings file is not being made then its something else blocking SWBF2 from starting.
