I had to “allow an app through controlled folder access” by adding bfv.exe to the allowed apps. step 1. go to windows notifications (bottom right call out symbol) click to open step 2. click on the “unauthorized changes blocked” notification pertaining to Battlefield V step 3. in the “allow an app through the controlled folder access” window that pops up click the + add an allowed app button step 4. find where your bfv.exe file was installed and select it. (mine is in D:\program files (x86)\Battlefield V) Lastly, click open. That fixed it for me. I was getting really tired of going through the intro every time I opened the game as well. ---
