Star Wars squadron’s launch problem
This is my EA support chat history. They told me to post something in the forms. Are there any people that can help? I already tried everything and after this chat, I asked Gemini and it told me to try and download a free game to try and re-sync it that didn’t work either.

- Today • 7:39 PM

- i think its a game libary link problem
- R
- Robin • 7:41 PM
- EA uses javelin anticheat only.
- huh
- when i launch the game it shows easy anti cheat
- R
- Robin • 7:43 PM
- Please make sure you are not using any third party anticheat program on your device.
- it shows this before crashing
- Screenshot 2026-04-01 194307
- Yes, that's the third party easy anti cheat. Please uninstall it from your device.
- R
- Robin • 7:46 PM
- We do not support that.
- its not i came when i downloaded steam
- from steam*
- google it
- R
- Robin • 7:49 PM
- I don't think that's a software required to be used our games. But you can confirm about it through steam as well.
- Yes, EA uses anti-cheat software, but they have largely moved away from third-party solutions like Easy Anti-Cheat (EAC) in favor of their own proprietary in-house, kernel-level software, often referred to as EA Anticheat (EAAC) or EA Javelin.
- yes new games use javlin but oldergames like sqadrons use eac
- R
- Robin • 7:50 PM
- Getting this information validated with my team.
- ok no worries you learn something new everyday
- i saw this in the game files it looks like a error
- R
- Robin • 7:52 PM
- I found this to be true older games like squadrons using that. Sorry for confusion.
- your good
- R
- Robin • 7:53 PM

- yes i just uninstalled and reinstalled that anticheat too not working still

- That's bad, if that also doesn't solve the problem. Since you have exhausted all the possible troubleshooting already. I will ask you to try posting about this issue at forum page: https://forums.ea.com/ I have kept your case details, once we have enough similar cases, we will report it to game team directly from our end in order to check if this is actually a game issue.

- R
- Robin • 8:21 PM
- I checked and found email seems to be linked with an inactive EA account and doesn't have anything as of now. If you really want to use that email, first you'll need to restore that EA account by resetting account password and then we can proceed to change the email's between your accounts.
- nvm
- how long will it take to get fixed and how will i know when it is
- Read • 8:23 PM

- Robin • 8:23 PM
- Since we don't have a fixed timeframe from our team. I cannot give you an ETA as of now. Once this is fixed, you'll simply be able to play the game. It's important you post at the forum. You might find a reply to your post there as well.
- ok thx
