Re: Please Help: EA AntiCheat error ( 7 ) ( 2 )

@OskooI_007 yeah, I have been running it that way for years so Minecraft would be on a separate drive. Minecraft uses the hard drive constantly and runs better set up this way. I had seen people saying the error could be due to files not being located, so I tried moving the app to my G drive. no matter how you install it, the program will put some EA AntiCheat files on the C drive and put some files in appdata (two separate drives on my pc).

I followed solution eight in @BLSmith2112's post a couple times to no avail. then I went through the effort of editing the registry and moving the files for appdata back on to the C drive. then I fully uninstalled EA AntiCheat, Battlefield 2042 and the EA app, then did a fresh install on the C drive. This gave the same ( 7 ) (2 ) error, so I tried solution 8 again a couple times, still nothing.

considering it worked fine the first night, I have a feeling it's just something wrong with the EA AntiCheat program. either way, I am still open to suggestions. I will likely just have to wait for an update to fix it, if that day ever comes.

    It seems the that actual EA Anticheat "service" is having a hard time starting.  If you hit the Windows key, type services, hit enter, scroll down to EA and see if one of those services is "starting".  Mine is stuck starting, so the game won't launch.  BF V works fine though.  Any EA admins seeing this?

    Finally got it working.  I uninstalled EA App.  Restarted.  Installed EA AntiCheat as Admin, installed to BF 2042.  Restarted.  Reinstalled EA App (restarted?).  now it works.
