BF2042 has refused to play since the update because of easy anti cheat i uninstalled the game 3 times uninstall eac almost 14 times restarted my laptop 3 times but nothing easy anti cheat is the worst to use .
I have the same error. The game was working fine until the last week. I have Win 11 with Windows Defender (no 3rd party AV) with all updates.
I tied everything that I could find:
Nothing helped.
This is a complete joke. Web root is a major selling AV. How could the game work this entire time and now all the sudden I can't play until next year? No wonder so many people are asking for their money back.
been wondering the same thing. tried getting a refund a bunch of times but to no avail
at least webroot provided us a fix.... F' EA
I stopped playing battlefield because of their decline in quality. I though 2042 might be my chance at coming back. I was wrong. I uninstalled Webroot just to see how the game was doing. It just feels clunky. This will likely be the last battlefield I play.
Thanks EA
I solved the problem with BF/EAC not starting differently from Accepted Solution for this thread.
Sharing just in case it may help somebody else.
In DxDiag, I noticed that the app at fault is nvcontainer.exe.
It turned out to be NVidia Container from NVidia Control Panel.
When I tried to open it, it was not responding, so I uninstalled it and re-installed it from Microsoft App Store.
And... it fixed the problem, and I can play BF2042!
@Danno_USMC Maybe I missed it. what was the fix provided by Webroot?
Uninstalled SecureAnywhere, it ran fine
Informed WebRoot.
