Now repair/verify game files.
Test game and keep us uptodate please.
- @Rokebo73 will try in about 30mins
@Rokebo73 did not work sadly.
service: EAAntiCheatService gets stuck on "launching" after splash screen gives error (7) 🏈, security violation pops up (30) and service will shut down.
in roaming service gets deleted but Cache and Installer remain, sadly no crash dumps there under programdata/eaanticheat/crashdumps
i added the Backgroundservice log maybe u can see something in that.
@KRASSSERGAMER ok lets do a cleanboot.
reboot pc by a clean boot:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/how-to-perform-a-clean-boot-in-windows-da2f9573-6eec-00ad-2f8a-a97a1807f3dd
Hide all Microsoft services, DISABLE (uncheck) ALL other processes, apps and services !
I suggest doing a clean boot first to isolate and identify the application that is causing the issue.
A “clean boot” starts Windows with a minimal set of drivers and startup programs so that you can determine whether a background program is interfering with your game or program.
- In the search box on the taskbar, type msconfig and select System Configuration from the results.
- On the Services tab of System Configuration, select Hide all Microsoft services, and then select Disable all.
- On the Startup tab of System Configuration, select Open Task Manager.
- Under Startup in Task Manager, for each startup item, select the item and then select Disable.
- Close Task Manager.
- On the Startup tab of System Configuration, select OK. When you restart the computer, it's in a clean boot environment.
Ps dont deactivate ea app background process and the EA AC process, else game will not launch at all.
Just test game. if it works then we need to check for other software that is tricking this issue.
Follow the instruction, do not exclude any process, otherwise its harder to find the cullprit !
Cheersps do this also:
Press Wndows key + R, now typ CMD , hold down CTRL+SHIFT button and press ENTER.
In the UAC windows select YES.
Now enter this commandtasklist>C:\serviceslist.txt
At youre C: drive is now a file, serviceslist.txt , post this file please !@Rokebo73 didnt work, also i tried clean boot on old OS where i did a clean boot aswell.
files attached.
