I have an update.
NFSHEAT has started without HDR every time I've done this. About four or five times.
If I start the game from Origin then spam click the desktop so NFSHEAT won't start up directly into fullscreen, then just click the icon in the taskbar.

I've tried a couple of more times and, yes, it works. Silly workaround but needed

Had this problem...here's how i solved it:
When you start the game HDR will be on due to all the settings being reset...just change it to Off.
