Easy anti-cheat launches twice but Bf2042 never runs

Did you check the "Event View" for windows?  Also i had to run EVERYTHING as admin including Steam and Origin to get rid of the error.  You can also try straight deleting the whole Documents folder.  It will reset your settings but might be worth a try.  And sometimes reinstalling old drivers isn't enough and you have to use DDU to completely remove any files that may have been corrupted.

Also allot of people are having CPU issues, but i have always had very high CPU usage and temps are 60c without issue but i have been struggling with some issue the game is having with the RAM.  I eventually had to turn off XMP to get the game to run correctly but it is definitely BF 2042 not my PC.  Have you monitored your CPU usage and RAM?  I didnt see a problem directly with RAM usage but it seems to be the issue.

Ive seen someone mention having to make sure you turn on admin privilege's first thing on windows boot as soon as your pc goes on.  Dont know why but it might matter.  Also try doing ALL the fixes at the same time and not one or the other.  IE start pc run admin then delete Documents Folder as soon as you start up and after do another restart and then try again.  I have found with other games applying a few fixes here and there sometimes doesn't work but you need to do all of them at once then restart before trying to run the game.  Also what application are you using??  I own the game on Steam but i was having issues like this and i deleted Origin and Uninstalled it from Steam and Downloaded it to EA app and my Anti Cheat error is gone now without the need to run as admin.  It doesn't seem to need Steam to run even though i bought it there.

Thank you @Luc1dNightmare and @JJxJJms. This has been killing me and your solution worked.
