External HDD games installed crashing on startup
Bought a new external HDD to help with dealing with games growing in size. Set up a steam folder and an Origin folder in my new HDD based on instructions on how to move files. Launching Battlefield 1 initially Origin couldnt detect the game installed but restarted and it detected it fine. Tried to launch the game and it crashes each time.

Any help?

Yes, you want to have the Killer LAN driver only installed, and everything else totally removed.

and also no nothing seemed off about my laptop i could have sworn this issue was because of the external hdd because nothing was wrong with prior, unless the transfer of my files to my internal was screwed up but i cant imagine that would still be prevelent after verifying my install on steam

Yes, verifying the game files should have corrected anything if there was anything to correct.

So we seem to have eliminated the external as the cause here, because you said you have the problem on the internal hard drive also. So that seems to leave software as a possible cause, unless there would be an extremely rare case of your internal hard drive also giving you problems, but that would be WAY outside the box and very, very rare indeed.

But you can always do a disk check in Windows to remove that as a possibility and it can't hurt anything to be sure.

Laptop is in Full performance mode ? and ofc. external disk is in NTFS ?
and you dont mentions game name or is it only BF1
then you could have corrupted VC++

this dont ruleout game.exe and steam.exe to allow rule in antivirus app, ( if it use Document as userdata )

Browse to game.exe in steam install places try lauch that game.exe from there , does it give you a error msg.

if you dont understand half of this , try see it as pitch in and The Giving One might want to try explan, im pretty sure he also want other give ideas.

Check what the good Iceira posted also, as that user is very helpful in these types of problems around here.

Before, I think you said it ran for about 20 seconds and then crashed. The details here are important, because if it is immediately closing, then that still suggests there might be an issue with sofware or the VC++ packages that were mentioned.

You would need to find the files in the game's directory and run them manually, if so. That might also be the issue, if they were blocked during setting up the game on your computer again.

So look for redist X 64 and redist X 86 in the game files, and right click them and run them directly from themselves.

Go to your installed apps on the computer. Find the VC++ redistributables in the list of installed apps, and run all of them again, and this time, select "repair" instead.

I don't blame you for being upset, and sorry I have not found the issue you have that is causing this. All I can do is assure you I am trying to help find it.

Now browse the BF1 game directory in your Steam folder, under steamapps, then common.

Find the BF1 game and open the folder and look for any files that resemble this :

I don't have BF1 so I can't help you find the exact location of the files. But when you find them, run them directly from themselves.

I also don't know for sure this is relevant since I don't have the game and have never installed it on my PC from Steam, but usually, Steam installs these for you during setup of the game, and if something was blocking their installation, that might be the problem here.

I think i found those and i repaired them but nothing changed when i tried to boot it up.

Idk.

Sorry to ask this and I should have asked it before, but can you please post your system specs on that computer like this :

Help in the top of Steam, then system information. Right click in the new window, select all, then copy and paste all of that here, please.

Here are the minimums for BF1 from the store page, for easy comparison when you do this :

Like I also want to claify exactly what happens when I launch the game.

I open it up and then i see a quick pop of for Origin (this happens normally in origin games im pretty sure) the game launches up i see a black screen with the standard loading screen. Then the game just closes down and sometimes Origin on its own will pop up as though i selected it.
