EA Anti-Cheat Fails to Install, Unable to Play EA SPORTS FC 25

About two weeks ago, I was still able to play EA SPORTS FC 25 completely normally without any issues. However, for the past few days, I can no longer play the game due to a problem with EA Anti-Cheat...

Hi, thanks for the reply.
No, my Windows username and installation path only contain standard characters (no accents or special characters).
Please let me know what else I can check.

Thanks for checking. Here are a few other things to check:

Run EA Anticheat installer as an administrator. Right click on EAAntiCheat.Installer.exe and choose Run as administrator

Temporarily turn off any third party antivirus and Windows Defender Controlled Folder Access. Re-enable these after installing

Install the game to a short path. Something like C:\Games\FC 25

Let me know what happens. Thanks!
