Worked yesterday, today crashes to EA App

I used to be able to get past this issues with 20 different fixes but today I have tried all the usual fixes and then some and no matter what I do, after launching BF6 after the ea anitcheat loading screen it crashes back to the EA App. What did they break now? Sheesh!

I finally figured it out although it was working just fine before I did this. After numerous hours of researching I decided again to see if my antivirus could be involved even though it's the same antivirus I have been using with the same settings when all of a sudden BF6 quit working by crashing to the EA App when I tried to run it. I guess by asking Google AI the right question it allowed me to find the answer so I hope it helps someone else. Bear in mind it says to be careful when you do this as you are leaving your pc exposed to potential virues and malware etc.
Question to Google:
Can Bitdefender mess with EA Anticheat?

Is that a Windows 11 Home or Pro?

Shelf the game and play something else
The CMs are not interested in actually fixing this game.

Yes I did all that already to both BF6 and EA Anticheat. No difference. Disabled EVERYTHING in Win11 Exploit Protection settings for both.

did you do that?
Exploit Protection Settings
Adjusted via Windows Security > App & browser control > Exploit Protection.
Added bf6.exe, disable Control Flow Guard, DEP, SEHOP, etc.

Going on at least day 5 of not being able to get BF6 to launch without crashing back to the EA App. Cleared EA App Cache (again), reinstalled BF6 (again), uninstalled and reinstalled AE Anitcheat (for the 100th time), repaired the game (numerous times), rebooted my PC (numerous times) and it was working better than usual the day before it quit working and I did not turn off my PC or use it for anything in between. And all my other battlefield games work and most of them use the EA Anticheat too. Weird and plenty annoying.

Now today I get the error described in this video. Why do we have to change 100 settings etc to play this game on a brand new pc that has all the power it needs and then some? And it still doesn't work.

I already tried that and after reading it worked for you I just tried that again. Same problem exists. Glad it worked for you though.
I even completely uninstalled and reinstalled BF6. The fun never ends, or should I say never starts.
