My computer just updated to Windows 10 last night, and now it seems that PR doesn't work. The launch menu opens fine, but once I hit play, it loads as if its opening the game, the screen turns black, and with in a half second or so it returns to my desktop with a message saying "PR:BF2 closing, cleaning up resources...". I've tried reinstalling the game, as well as installing an older version of DirectX. I ran through the trouble shoot a few times, and still had no luck.

If anyone so far has had the same problem, and figured out how to fix it, let me know. I only recently started playing PR and this sucks.

Next time please post in support section.

On topic: try running game in widowed mode and see if any error appears.

If you upgraded and didnt do a clean install I suggest you reinstall PR completely.

I also recommend a clean install for performance reasons, I've noticed a 20% difference generally.

Get a spare USB drive with at least 3Gb and use the media creation tool to create a bootable USB W10 installer. It's fairly simple, (google)

Probably missing VC++ Redist, see this post for more details.

I had the same problem after a clean Windows 10 install. I installed a steam game so it would update my DirectX and VC+++, which fixed it.

this fixed it for me
