BF6 Blocking NVIDIA Shadowplay

Question

This has been an ongoing issue since at least early 2025 and it's still not resolved. BF6 is actively blocking NVIDIA's Instant Replay and ShadowPlay through its anti-cheat, and GeForce Experience outright tells you the game is preventing capture.
&nbsp;I've tried the suggestions I could find online.

Desktop capture enabled/disabled
Disable conflicting overlays (Discord etc)
Disable Hardware AGS
GFE running as administrator
Cycling Instant Replay in-game
Latest drivers

None of it works. I feel like ShadowPlay is one of the most common clip tools PC players use. It has nothing to do with cheating. There's no good reason for EAC to flag it.
Has anyone found a working solution? And has there been any official acknowledgment from the devs that this is being looked at? Would be good to get some visibility on this.

Sometimes I have luck starting shadowplay before launching the game, but it'd be nice to have a proper fix by EA.

I upvote for this. Game also blocks NVidia Statistics Overlay, and game recording functionality on OBS. Seems like the anti-cheat doesn't even know what is going on.

Yeah I've heard OBS works for some people. I'd rather use replay to avoid another program on my computer. I heard ShadowPlay was a bigger issue in the Beta but it still looks like its not resolved for a lot of players.
