    Sooooooo.... i figured it out. I use a Enterprise Security software called Sentinel ONe. This is what was causing the violations. Once i whitelisted the app it worked. I just dont understand why all the sudden it started blocking it. LOL. I apologize for getting irritated

@-bZ-TwoTabs
Press Win + E to open File Explorer
Go to the View tab and make sure that the Hidden items option is ticked
Navigate to the following location and delete the file:
C:\\Program Files(x86)\\EasyAntiCheat\EasyAntiCheat.sys
C:\\Program Files(x86)\\EasyAntiCheat\EasyAntiCheat.exe

Type cmd in Windows search
Right-click on Command Prompt and pick Run as administrator
When User Account Control shows up, click Yes
Use the following command lines, pressing Enter after each (make sure you wait till each of the commands is executed properly):
sfc /scannow
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
Restart your system.

After restart system goto:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Battlefield 2042\EasyAntiCheat
Run the EasyAntiCheat_Setup.exe as administrator and install EasyAntiCheat.

When EAC is installed, now right-click Origin shortcut and Run as administrator , login and start game

    Hey @-bZ-TwoTabs,

    Happy to hear that you figured out what was causing the issue!

    It's possible that EAC has updated their block list and that this is why Sentinel One was being flagged.
    It's maybe worth sending EAC an email about this: https://www.easy.ac/contact/.

    Happy gaming!

    See, that's the thing, their contact form is completely broken and that's the only way to get ahold of them. I tried to get into chat with them and they said they couldn't help

    Hi -bZ-TwoTabs​ how did you whitelist the app? I dont seem to have any control over the sentinelone antivirus.
