So far it appears that something in the Webex application is interfering with just this game. I used process explorer to close the Webex background tasks, and I could immediately maximize Battlefront II again. I tested this again by closing Battlefront II, launching Webex, and then launching Battlefront II again it again minimized to the taskbar.
Boom, I clicked the Battlefront II icon in the tray and it maximized. One by one I went through and closed a background task, and then clicked the minimized Battlefront II icon in the system tray. I opened Process Explorer to view all the applications that are open, then I launched Battlefront II (and confirmed that the minimizing issue is still present).
Steam battlefront 2 mods update#
Update 5 ( part II, electric boogaloo): I did some more troubleshooting using a free application called Process Explorer (it's like task manager but more detailed). Several restarts sometimes fix it for a session, sometimes not. I suppose it's possible that the game's anti-cheat feature was being tripped by an unrecognized USB device (?). This cleared the error in Device Manager, and now Battlefront II boots normally first try, every time. Update 3 (): After extensive troubleshooting, I found that an old Lexar USB memory card reader (LRW400U) was triggering a USB bus error in Device Manager, so I removed it (side bar: removing it fixed an odd issue that was causing my keyboard and mouse to take about 5 additional seconds to turn on upon a computer restart). For additional reference, this machine was fully wiped less than a month ago. There is definitely something inconsistent going on. After another restart it just launched fine. After a restart today it's broken again, and the open/closing of Fallen Order did not work. Odd thing was, on the second round of troubleshooting (post system image restore) I tried launching Fallen Order, which worked fine, then I closed it and then reopened Battlefront 2 and it worked fine.
Steam battlefront 2 mods windows#
Everything was fine until I did all the Windows updates again, and now it won't launch again. I've tried everything two re-installs, reinstalling Origin, clearing caches and settings files, and the only thing that (temporarily) worked was restoring my machine to a system image from last Wednesday. I believe this happened after a Windows update.
Clicking on the icon will not open it, but I do hear the audio playing for a fraction of a second. Now when I try to launch Battlefront II I see a black window briefly appear (for a split-second, along with my desktop rendering in a lower resolution), and minimize to the taskbar (and the resolution returns to normal). I've been playing Battlefront II fine up until the middle of last week.
