Javelin Anti-cheat Issue fix

Solution is near the bottom!!

There are many people running into issues now with Javelin anti cheat, and although some of the basic troubleshooting steps have worked for most people, they definitely did not work for me or my particular issue.

Here is what i previously wrote in my other discussion.

-----------------

I have over 16 hours of playtime, so it's not like I've never played the game.

After the most recent update, I am no longer able to play the game.

It launches to the javelin splash screen, then just disappears and the game stops running. No black screen, no error codes, no faults in the binary, I've already updated the drivers, it boots in secure boot, ive verified that 3 times, I updated my bios, uninstalled and reinstalled the game, uninstalled and repaired the anti cheat, both regular and as administrator, I've verified the file cache, I have no overlays running, I quit out of discord, I updated my C++ redistributables, all of my drivers are up to date, my system itself is fully up to date, clean installed nvidia drivers.

 

There isn't a step I haven't tried.

Yet the game still crashes for absolutely no reason.

I tried to contact customer support on the EA website, and their chat bot is absolutely worthless and just loops the same message and wont connect me to an advisor.

I put in a support ticket but even after the 48 hour wait for a reply, I'm sure it will still take about 2 weeks to even get close to a solution.

---------------------

 

After chatting with an actual advisor, FINALLY, from ea, instead of their worthless chat bot, (which was only obtained because i opened a support ticket and they deemed my issue as needing actual chat support), I have found somewhat of a solution. It may not work for everyone, but for me, at least its something to be able to at least play the game, albeit very frustrating and annoying as it is.

 

Create a new user profile on your pc, don't attach a microsoft account to it, and launch the game from there.

 

Simple.

Irritating, but simple.

If you do not know how to create another user profile, it is very simple.

 

I have found that there is SOMETHING conflicting with javelin on my main pc user profile, and I cannot figure out what it is no matter how hard i search. I've went to the extent of uninstalling and deleting over 1500 mods, and even updating my bios, and nothing fixed it. So if you are running into the same issue as I am, try my solution and if it works for you, AWESOME! If not, sorry bruh.

 

At the end of the day, EA tech support is absolutely worthless.

The only solutions they will give you is to read their forums and help links, which in my case, didn't do a single solitary thing to help me.

  • For the love of all that is Holy, thank you so much for this fix. I have been stuck since the winter offensive update, racked a 100h on the game previously... I have no words, my only guess is that a privilege on the Administrator account bugs things out. 

    Hope this works for more than two days, I previously reinstalled my Windows and the game launched, the next day it was broken again tho...

    I honestly don't believe it's a hardware issue. I truly think it's just something that javelin is deeming to be incomprehensive to its algorithm. Thinking something on people's pc's are considered to be a conflicting program. Javelin is butting heads with something,and ea refuses to create any sort of diagnostic tools for people to be able to tell exactly what that conflicting program is. 

    Bf worked just fine for me before they did their javelin update recently. Then all of a sudden, SOMETHING triggered javelin on my PC and now it won't launch. It's javelin. It has to be. And even the tech I spoke to said there's no way to tell what the conflicting program is. Did you see the screenshot I attached? They deemed my issue with a 'no fix available' tag. 

    Try the method I suggested and see if it works for you. If not, I guess just keep digging for answers and maybe someday EA will fix their janky program.
