I did every step you mentioned..nothing worked. I even talked to 2 EA advisors about it & all they did was sending me an e mail with the same instructions you mentioned in your post + few other steps & surprisingly none of them helped solve the problem.
To be honest, these 2 guys were very polite & friendly which something I appreciate when I enter a rage state b'cause of a poorly optimized release!!
Here is a list of all the things they told me to do & I did all of them by the word:
1> Repair the game:

2> Disable Origin Overlay : https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/how-to-remove-origin-overlay/td-p/5625962
3> Run the game as Admin : http://help.ea.com/uk/article/how-do-i-run-a-program-or-a-game-as-an-administrator/
4> Check if there is any program that may conflict with Origin :

5> Clear temp files using CCleaner : http://help.ea.com/en/article/how-to-use-ccleaner-to-fix-pc-issues/
6> Create a new Admin : http://help.ea.com/uk/article/how-to-create-a-new-admin-account/
7> Clean Boot : https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/929135
8> Flush your DNS: https://help.ea.com/en-us/help/pc/connection-troubleshooting-advanced-pc/
------------------
After wasting hours of going through these steps & searching the forums, I ended up formatting my PC, re-downloading & install the whole game from scratch. that was 6 hours of hard work to fix the problem including format, drivers, downloading the game...etc, oh, & a 50GBx2 waste of my data plan.
For those of you having issues with getting "you have been disconnected from the server" message, just check if your motherboard has Killer LAN Ethernet..if you do have one as in my case just disable Killer Network Services from your task manager.

Re: game crashes tto desktop when starting squad conquest

The first step that I usually do is run Origin as an admin and then repair the game. I didn't see anyone mention having done both of those steps back to back so if you haven't tried that it might be worth your time before reinstalling the game or OS.
