"Le service EA anticheat a rencontré une erreur. Veuillez redémarrer le jeu. : C:\Program Files\EA\AC\EAAntiCheat.GameService.exe ( 7 ) ( 1053 )"
Battlefield 1, bought on the Epic Games Store, launched via EA App (linked account). Windows also logs a matching Service Control Manager timeout (Event ID 7000/7009) when the EAAntiCheatService is started — it hangs for exactly 90 seconds and never responds.
Already tried, all without effect: full clean reinstall of EA App + Epic Games Launcher + Battlefield 1; repairing the game; unlinking/relinking the Epic account to EA; Hyper-V/virtualization disabled; Windows Defender exclusions for the game and anti-cheat folders; Secure Boot confirmed enabled; TPM 2.0 confirmed active; no conflicting anti-cheat driver running (Vanguard/Easy Anti-Cheat stopped); Windows system files verified clean (SFC/DISM). No dual-boot/GRUB in the boot chain either.
Worth noting this exact same error code (7)(1053) is also reported by players on Battlefield 6 and other EA titles using Javelin — looks like a shared bug in the anti-cheat component itself, not something specific to BF1 or to one installation.
Offer ID: Origin.OFR.50.0000557 / Entitlement ID: 1022741251247, if that helps EA look at it server-side.
