So i bought the game yesterday right after work. I was really happy to get a new chance to carry my horrible team to the div 1 title on pro clubs. But I didn't get the game to start. Everytime when I try to start the game I get an anti cheat error that tells me that I need to restart my computer. I've literally tried EVERYTHING that I can find online on this matter. I've watched countless videos of russians and indians explaining to me how to fix the problem, but nothing works.PLEASE, has anyone had the same problem? What did you do to fix it? I'm desperate........Thanks

I uninstalled McAfee - which worked. I can finally play! Thanks for the help everyone 🙂

@Maxjanze Looking at your data from EA anticheat, we are unable to start the service - it looks like our files are being blocked or quarantined by your antivirus, despite us being a trusted partner with McAfee.

Please make sure you've got EA anticheat allowlisted, and not blocked, by your anti-virus.

I'd double check both that EAAntiCheat.GameServiceLauncher.exe in your Steam game folder and EAAntiCheat.GameService.exe located at C:\Program Files\EA\AC are marked as allowed/trusted.

going off the last ea post.
DO you have windows security enabled.
Go into windows security and then to protection history. Check to see if any eafc or ea folders have been blocked from access.
Will say something like protected folder access blocked then a date and threat level.
If an ea folder has been blocked then give it access.

@EA_Barry I've tried these and nothing is working. I use a cloud based PC and tried opening multiple tickets most of which get closed with no resolution.

Can you respond to one of the main threads regarding the AntiCheat 137 and Shadow PC with some kind of update?

You made a mistake purchasing this
Should have checked the community before anything
