False ban, Possibly from BIOS config/Riot vanguard?

Hello,

I'll start off by introducing myself. I am 22 years old and an ex tier 1 Professional Valorant player so I definitely do not need to cheat, I've also reached the highest rank in multiple games since I enjoy competing and to seek improvement.. I've been playing a lot of Apex recently and until this new season its been great. This new season came with a performance issue for me so I disabled hyper-threading in my bios. Since then I have been getting a lot of error and crashes on my game, I feel like this could be linked to my ban potentially. I've also been told riot vanguard (the pc invasive anti-cheat for valorant) could also cause the ban. The ban itself was for gameplay enhancements. I can assure you I have never cheated and never will. I am here to seek answers as to what could cause the ban. I do not use any 3rd party software besides Crosshair X but even then I only used it for 3 days last season. I am also not getting boosted or playing with cheaters as far as I am aware. Are false bans in Apex common?

    Fyi I have like 2k hours on the game and so many clips of me playing the game of course so I don't know why they would think someone with an account so old and with many hours would do such thing without actually looking into it. I gave them 3k plus paged word doc with all the applications used and they somehow got back to me under a day... Definitely looked through it all lol.

     

  • I am also falsely banned for the same issue(gameplay enhancment). I've already tried to appeal twice with one literally giving them what applications I have opened dating back a year. The ban also happened when I wasn't even home for 3 days and it got applied the day before I can back. I too play valorant and so also have riot vanguard. They give no good explanation to what you have actually done and what has caused it. I didn't change anything to my bios or setting far that I can remember so I don't know what caused it.
