Re: Easy Anti-Cheat game security violation detected (#000000D)[LightingService.exe]

Hey there everyone,

I have been searching around for an answer to this question here and to find out why EAC halts at some measly LED control software.

I haven't been able to find anything useful so I can up with a temporary fix for the issue here.

I made a batch file linked: here

What it does is:

1. Stop the lighting service

2. Launch Apex Legends

3. Wait until you confirm you want the service back'

4. Closes.

Unfortunately you will need to set it as a shortcut on the desktop and to make it ask for admin privileges (limitations regarding stopping and starting services ☹️ )

While doing this I also was able to find that you can change the icon to make it look exactly like the Apex icon, to keep it all nice and stealthy ;O

Hope this helps you all! (And of course I don't mind helping out if it doesn't work correctly for you all!)

*EDIT* I forgot to mention, you will need to change some specific parts of this to get it to work correctly for you, such as the Drive letter and Program location!

    @ANDREW_IS_AcOoL  you can manually close the process "LightingService (32-bit)" in the taskmanager and you can proceed. However, you need to do this each time you restart your system. Don't worry, it will not stop any of the cool lights on your system though.

    Yup, exactly. That is all that is popping up that ani cheat message. It is linked to Auro, the system that usually controls your lighting. I have that problem also with other games and this does the trick all the time. Again, it will do nothing to your system, nor your lighting etc.

  • @Robster1276 umm its still not working i opened my task manager and ended the task and i i tryed to open a game and it said the same thing i also tryed to restart and ended it again and it didnt work

    Well, that is my solution. If it doesn't work for you, there may be some other issue that causes it in general or along side the issue that I had with the Lighting Service. I just don't have any idea where to look for that, sorry. I only found out about this by searching the internet and try the options I found.
