    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

  • 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

    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
