CAN'T RUN GAMES - JAVELIN ANTI CHEAT FATAL ERROR

I've been getting this message for the last 20 days when trying to run BF1: "Javelin anticheat encountered an error, please restart your PC". I've tried countless things to fix this problem, but no success. Many other players have the same issue across multiple games. 

I've tried everything that the troubleshooting guide says, I've reinstalled the game, updated my drivers etc etc. People speculate that the error is with the TPM 2.0 requirement. BF6 requires TPM 2.0 in order to play. Since BF6 and for example BF1 both use the same anti cheat software, BF1 all of a sudden requires TPM 2.0 in order to play. This is a huge oversight. You basically blocked half of your player base from accessing your games. Please fix this by lowering the TPM requirement for older games to 1.2 and keep the 2.0 requirement for newer games only. Players that play older titles usually can't even run these newer games, that's why they are playing these older titles in the first place.

I wanted to know if EA is even aware of this and when can we expect a fix. If there is no fix coming, then the only thing we can do is buy a new motherboard or a new PC. That is a bit too much. Please simply lower the requirement for older titles.

    I can't do that, no TPM setting in my BIOS.
