Stuck on battelog ( bluebar "JOINING SERVER")
Hi,

I've been playing bf3 with steam for a couple of weeks for now but last week it suddenly stopped working properly.
I am stuck with the blue loading bar on the battlelog, I've checked many forums and I couldn't find any fix yet

I have :
- Checked game files
-Reinstalled origin
-Reintstalled bf3
- Updated punkbuster
- Clear origin cache
- Disabled firewall
- Tried different web browsers
- COULDN'T untick " Use plugin-free game launching "

:bfrepairtool: Thank you for your help :bfrepairtool:

C:\ProgramData\Electronic Arts\EA Services\License and delete all the DLF files. You may have one or several.

Delete the lot, the game will produce more upon the next start up. It is a recent Windows 10 Update bug and is fixed by doing what I suggested.

Thank you. Thank you thank you thank you. I love you. I would kiss you. Doibh you are a god in disguise. For all the people saying it hasn't worked for you, I'm so so sorry. I wish I could help you, but I just spent 6 hours trying to get it to work before I finally found this super obscure post

Well it came back to bite me in the butt. I temporarily uninstalled the game, to make space for Squad and Arma 3 before I got my new ssd, now that I've reinstalled it I have the same problem but this solution is no longer working. I've gotten it to launch twice, but every time I restart my PC the problem resets and I'm not sure exactly what I did to get it working.

It doesn't work for me.
If someone has another solution, please tell me, but I don't know, what to do.
Nothing seems to work.
