How do I remove Javelin after uninstalling the beta
The steam page states "Kernel-level Integration - Requires manual removal after game uninstall" Yet there is no information on how to do so anywhere I could see

EA Anticheat TeamHi folks,
Apologies for any scare with the message from Valve.
There's two parts to this, which is why we get the marker.
1. If you have multiple games with our anti-cheat installed, we will leave the files at C:\Program Files\EA\AC in place, so the other games will work. When all games with Javelin installed have been uninstalled, it should invoke the uninstaller to remove the files there.
2. The anti-cheat binaries in your game folder can update independently of the game files, so we can fix bugs without waiting for a game patch. Steam only tracks the files that were in the original game install, so once we update, some files can be left behind. We've got a fix for this coming so that when the uninstaller is invoked, it will remove these files too, but it wasn't ready in time for beta. This is not a concern for the EA app, as the EA app will delete all files in the game folder when you uninstall the game there.
Hope this helps address your concerns, let me know if you have follow up questions.
As I dont have the folder specified the anticheat was removed when I uninstalled the game correct? Thanks for the reply!

Hi Deadricdoom, yes, if you don't have any files at C:\Program Files\EA\AC then the anti-cheat has been successfully removed from your computer.
Thanks for the feedback, 'much appreciated as I was looking for this.
It does not. Get the **bleep** out of my computer. Just because y'all are too dumb to properly detect cheating doesn't mean you need kernel level access. Needless to say, I won't be playing this beta and I definitely won't be buying your spyware.
