    OK, so finally I have found a solution !

    Basically it looks like a problem with certificates ( at least in my case ) - that's what the change in registry also means.

    What helped me - I've updated manually all my certificates - to that You need to run this command from elevated command prompt:

    certutil.exe -generateSSTFromWU C:\ps\root.sst

    this should get you a file with all the cerficates from Windows Update, bare in mind that folder "ps" needs to be created before or you will get errors

    You might get "acceess denied" on that command ( as I did ) - then you need someone to run this command for You and send You the file - I would attach it here but of course it's not supported.

    When You have the file you can import all the certificates from it manually or You can run following commands in PowerShell:

    $sstStore = ( Get-ChildItem -Path C:\ps\root.sst )

    $sstStore | Import-Certificate -CertStoreLocation Cert:\LocalMachine\Root

    This will copy all Certificates from the file to Your local machine

    [ this article helped me a lot! : https://woshub.com/updating-trusted-root-certificates-in-windows-10/ ]

    Then, for good measure, restart Your machine

    EA Support - please take note of this solution... because You were no help at all - no one would even take a look at .dmp files from eaanticheat...

    Всем привет

    Вот два решения, нужно сделать оба и мне помогло

    1) изменить в реестре

    \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\SystemCertificates\AuthRoot

    Измените значение DisableRootAutoUpdate на 0.

    2) сделать эту настройку.


    Откройте настройки ПК,
    Откройте настройки безопасности Windows,
    Нажмите «Управление приложениями и браузерами».
    Нажмите «Настройки защиты от эксплойтов».
    Нажмите на «Настройки программы»
    Нажмите «Добавить программу для настройки».
    Нажмите «Выбрать точный путь к файлу».
    Перейдите туда, где вы установили Battlefield 2042, и щелкните файл «BF2042.exe»,
    Нажмите «Открыть»,
    Прокрутите вниз до пункта «Защита потока управления» (CFG),
    Нажмите «Переопределить системные настройки»,
    Убедитесь, что он переключен в положение «Выкл.»,
    Наконец нажмите «Применить».

    после этих двух действий все заработало. 

    Всем огромное спасибо!!!
