Every time I try to start BF6, I get this error message with C++ 2022. I close it and the game starts normally! Does anyone know how to solve this? I've tried everything!
I don't know if it's the game or my Windows 11.
error:

Thanks for sharing the details.
To help narrow this down, could you provide a bit more information?
Did the issue start after a recent Battlefield 6 update or a Windows update?
Does the message appear every time you launch the game, even though it continues to start normally afterward?
Since the game still launches successfully after closing the message, it may indicate that a Visual C++ component is failing to initialize correctly while the game is still able to recover.
If you haven't already, it's also worth checking:
Whether Microsoft Visual C++ 2015–2022 Redistributables (both x64 and x86) are installed and up to date.
Whether there are any pending Windows updates.
Whether the EA App and the game are both fully up to date.

I think it was due to a Windows update. I have C++ 14.51xxx installed, and the problem is with C++ 14.50xx, which I can't do anything with—install or uninstall it on Windows!
Just close the error window and the game starts. For now, I'll wait for an update to see. There's a good chance the problem is with my Windows, some folder or app that I uninstalled!

Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable latest supported downloads
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/windows/latest-supported-vc-redist?view=msvc-170#visual-c-v14-redistributable
>> Visual C++ v14 Redistributable
download and install both, X86 and X64, restart PC, try again
if it still conflicts, deinstall ALL current installed VCRedistributables from your machine, reboot PC, install latest X86 and X64 as linked above, reboot, try again
