Hey there,

This thread was created for issues regarding EAAnticheatexecutable.exe being missing which caused players couldn't launch F1® 24.

This issue was completely solved. After that, I've seen that the thread has been massively derailed with other issues about launching, but they don't have to do anything with the initial problem.

This makes it impossible to report to the team as everything is mixed. To solve this, I'm going to close this thread and request you to open a new one if you are having issues launching the game.

Consider following this guide when reporting, please:

Hey @toxinrayn

The game should be live right now. On which platform are you playing?

It's not working because of EA Anticheat. They didn't include it. Problem with that is they really screwed up. EA Anticheat doesn't have F1 24 as an option when you download it. WOW EA just Fing WOW.

Did you buy the game from Steam or did you buy it from a third-party retailer?

Nope, Steam Championship Addition still not working. And EA Moderator stop asking dumb questions. We bought it through STEAM. You know that. We've told you over and over. It keeps saying the EAAnticheatexecutable.exe is missing.

Hey there,

It might be that EA Anticheat wasn't downloaded once the game went live. Could you close Steam and reopen it? If it still doesn't work, could you reinstall the game to try to fix this issue?

Well, I don't think anyone who bought the game on Steam can provide feedback. It won't launch because it says it can't launch the EA Anticheat Launcher, but it didn't install with the game, and there's no way to add it. Everyone seems to be having this issue.
