EA AntiCheat (Javelin) crashes on Windows 11 25H2 (Build 26200)

Hi,

I'm unable to launch EA FC 26 on PC (Steam) due to an EA AntiCheat crash every time I try to start the game. I have analyzed the generated crash dump files and can confirm the following:

• Exception: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION (0xC0000005)

• Faulting module: EAAntiCheat.GameServiceLauncher.dll

• Exception type: DEP/NX violation at the DLL's own base address

• OS: Windows 11 Pro 25H2 (Build 26200.8328)

• CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D

• GPU: AMD RX 9070 XT

Steps I have already tried without success:

• Uninstalled and reinstalled EA AntiCheat multiple times

• Disabled Discord overlay

• Added FC 26 folder to Windows Defender exclusions

• Verified game file integrity via Steam

This is a known incompatibility between EA Javelin AntiCheat and Windows 11 25H2 (Build 26200), reported by many users across FC 26 and Battlefield 6 threads. The game worked correctly before updating to 25H2.

This is not a user-side configuration issue — it requires an EA AntiCheat driver update for Windows 11 25H2 compatibility. Please prioritize a fix.

Thank you.
