    So, since I see quite a lot of posts regarding this issue, I myself don't have it, my recommandation would be to uninstall bf 1  and reinstall it.

    Before BF 2042 and V got the EAAC, I uninstalled each game and downloaded the game again after the anticheat got added, so I could have the ''new version''.

    I did the same on Monday with BF 1 and haven't had any issues. I only own the game on EA App. Steam might also be the culprit here.

  • That doesn't work.  I uninstalled BF1 including anticheat, reinstalled, anticheat then reinstalled, same issue.  Also did the whole thing again, uninstalling Origin as well, same issue.  The problem is that the EAanticheat service that is installed as part of this fails to start properly.  If you look at it as the game is loading, it goes from Stopped - Starting - Stopping and stays in the Stopping state from that point forward.  Eventually the BF1/Anticheat splash screen shows that the service failed to start and the Windows logs shows an invalid parameter and a failure code of 87.

    I have also tried the deletion of the cryptbase.dll file.  That file does not exist in the game folder for me so no luck there either.

  • @neoforo87i tried to reinstall the game but i still have the problem i open the game (i own it on steam) i get the anti cheat splashscreen but it closes after 30 seconds with no error and it just returns to steam, bfv works with the anticheat (i have both on steam)

    ps. im using win 11 24H2

    Reinstalled game- that fixed it. Repaired game from settings or game menu did not fix it.

    Hope this helps others.

    Game on ...... hehe
