Code-Anti cheat authentication timeout.

 I was fine playing in the afternoon of 28th Oct. It happened to me on the 28th of October. I have found so many solutions in yt guide, such as running as Administrator, restarting the router, following the command,I verified the files and reinstalled the game 2 times, and it's still not working for me. I asked my friend to help me for hours, and still haven't solved the problem. I do not know what can i do anymore. I live in Asia and i hope EA would help me to solve the problem so that i can play the game!

    It's a EAC problem, it can't recognize the root certs for some reason.

    I found the solution. Open cmd as an administrator, and then run the following three codes one by one:

    • certutil -generateSSTFromWU roots.sst
    • certutil -addstore -f root roots.sst
    • del roots.sst
