-* Make sure you got the newest version of Northstar. In particular, [v1.4.0 or higher](https://github.com/R2Northstar/Northstar/releases/) have this problem fixed.
-* Restart Origin\
- Also check task manager that all Origin processes are gone before restarting it\
- (even if you have the Steam version)
-* Restart your PC
-* Start Northstar with Origin already open
-* Start Northstar with Origin fully closed.
-* Start vanilla game and see if this works.\
- If vanilla doesn't work either, check [this thread on EA forums](https://answers.ea.com/t5/Titanfall-2/Titanfall-2-Wont-Laumch-DLL-file-issue/td-p/5660909)
-* Check [this issue thread](https://github.com/R2Northstar/Northstar/issues/6) to see whether any of the solutions proposed there work for you.
-* Verify game files via Steam/Origin (depending on where you own the game)
-* Check Github issues if anyone else is experiencing this problem. Maybe current release has a bug.
+Don't panic! This warning isn't as serious as it seems. It's simply an incorrect error message caused by Origin/EA App. If you get this warning after launching the game, try updating your Northstar install to the [newest release](https://github.com/R2Northstar/Northstar/releases), as this error was mostly resolved in version `v1.4.0`.
-If you followed all these steps and even launching the vanilla version of the game doesn't work, your final option is to fully remove the game and reinstall it.\
-Then checking if vanilla works before reinstalling Northstar.
+If that doesn't work, you should verify your Titanfall2 files. If you're confused on how to verify files, follow [this](troubleshooting.md#verify-files) guide.
