Eac authentication issues
I have been experiencing a persistent "Failed anticheat authentication" error in Apex for about a week. The game usually lets me play for a short time (10–20 minutes) but then kicks me, especially when I’m in the menu/lobby screen. In-game lag and connectivity are generally fine during matches.
Everything I have already tried (multiple times):
- Verified game files in Steam
- Deleted and repaired EasyAntiCheat folder / ran Repair Service
- Ran qa-factory-reset on EasyAntiCheat_EOS
- Full clean reinstall of Apex Legends on Steam
- Reinstalled all Visual C++ Redistributables (clean uninstall + fresh install)
- Ran the root certificate fix (certutil -generateSSTFromWU commands)
- Restarted router, PC, and ran as Administrator
- Full reset my pc
None of these have resolved the issue. The game worked fine until about a week ago. Would love any help
