Fix Garden Warfare 2 not Launching

[juanyp90]

First, Uninstall the trash EA App in Control Panel

Next, using this link install Origin https://download.dm.origin.com/origin/live/OriginSetup.exe

Almost Done, once Origin is done downloading and asks you to login in right click the Origin icon and click exit in the ^ menu in the bottom right of your taskbar.

Finally, open F*ck Off EA App from GitHub (Find it on Google) in the download category it should say Download the installer and run it! click on the Download that is highlighted blue. Run the installer and make sure the Pretend EA App is installed is selected. Log in into your Origin right after and it should work.

Comment if you have any problems.

I think so? the application itself does not open or appear open yet in task manager it does open and contain as running GW2... also Origins apparently has an update which disables me from joining people on SWBF2

I've done everything I could possibly find on fixing this problem and nothing works... Did everything in the book and no luck. If EA could maybe get off their asses and make a working launcher that be amazing right? I don't have a problem launching SWBF2 but why this game? Any reason why?

add this

[Bootstrap]
EnableUpdating=false

into EACore.ini inside of C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin

you have to install origin first wait for the login in screen then you can open the installer

Well I have found another way to fix this game from not launching
If you have frosty mod manager, download something called frostymodsupport.dll and put it in your plugins folder. Launch the game through Frosty Mod Manager (without mods) and It'll work
