FC25 Anticheat detecting ‘AutoHotKey’
Hi, I’ve been playing EA games on my pc for 5 years with no issues at all with Anticheat. However yesterday for the first ever time, the game could not launch as Anticheat was detecting ‘AutoHotKey’....

I have the exact same issue on BF V since they updated the anti cheat in middle of May .. despite not having any Autohot key software. I have to repair the game each time to open it which takes over an hour. Have sent at least 2 fault reports to EA but not a whisper back nor any sign of a repair.
Hello Gullboy,
I had the same issue and tried many things, including YouTube videos, but nothing. Finally, a few days ago, I can't remember where I saw a screenshot (see attached) where someone suggested to start disabling some start-up apps from the "icons" section of the taskbar (bottom right side). My issue was that a particular app (not AutoHotKey) which I don't have either, but a software, was utilizing "hotkey" as part of my startup app was interfering with Anticheat. So now, every time I start my computer and want to play F1 25, I "exit" or "suspend" the app, interfering with AntiCheat. Hope this helps.
You should not have to mess around closing apps or doing repairs. This is shoddy software written in a hurry with no thought to users other programs. Anti-cheat should have exceptions the same as anti virus programs. This is laziness.
