Problem:
So after I updated Battlefield 1 not so long ago, I tried to launch the game...
I found out more than 100 times that my game doesn't show up but my mouse indicates that something is loading. So I checked out the task manager. When I launch my game, BF1 shows up on the task manager, then disappears while another BF1 program pops up and also vanishes after a couple of seconds.

What I've tried:
- Restarting my pc
- updating game
- updating nvidia drivers
- repairing game files
- removing application extensions and then repairing the game files
- ran origin and BF1 as administrator
- trying to find a solution on alot of other forums

In case you're going to ask me about my pc specs:
I've played BF1 before and it was on high with 120 fps
- GeForce GTX 970
- Intel i7-4790 CPU @ 3.60GHz
- 15.93 GB RAM

please, if there's anything I haven't done yet I'd be thankful!
 
Solution
So I finally found a very simple fix:
1. Close your origin completely
2. run BF1 as admin
3. Now your origin should launch and ask for your password or auto-login
4. The game starts up after some waiting
5. Enjoy! :D
