Hi,

I checked the requested Windows Event Viewer logs and found the following.

Applications and Services Logs > Microsoft > Windows > CodeIntegrity > Operational

I found nothing relevant.

Applications and Services Logs > Microsoft > Windows > AppLocker > EXE and DLL

I found nothing relevant.

Applications and Services Logs > Microsoft > Windows > Windows Defender > Operational

I found Event ID 1151, Endpoint Protection client health report.

I also found the following event from EA Javelin AntiCheat:

Event ID 1000: fc26.exe exited unexpectedly with exit code 0xFFFFFFFF

There were no relevant events in CodeIntegrity or AppLocker, and Windows Defender shows that real-time protection and the other protection components are enabled.

The Javelin AntiCheat Event ID 1000 is the only event I found that directly reports FC 26 exiting unexpectedly.

Apologies. I didn't see this response previously. I'd like you to check the Reliability Monitor. Hit Win+R and enter perfmon /rel. Find the FC 26 failure at the exact time of the Javelin Event 1000. If there is an FC26.exe/EA SPORTS FC 26 critical event, select it and choose View technical details. Look for the following:

Problem Event Name
Application Name
Application Version
Fault Module Name
Fault Module Version
Exception Code
Exception Offset
OS Version
Bucket ID
