[EA app] PvZ GW2 AntiCheat error 1053

I have installed Plants vs Zombies Garden Warfare 2 and I continually see the attached screen shot that says 

EA AntiCheat Service encountered an error.  Please restart the game: C:\Program Files\EA\AC\EAAntiCheat.GameService.exe (7) (1053).

OS: Windows 10 with latest updates

Video Card:  RX 6700 XT with latest drives.

I have started the EA app as administrator and reinstalled the game and Anti cheat numerous times.

Any help is appreciated.  I have read through the many posts from 2022 on this issue and none those suggestions have helped.

Thank you.

    Thank you for the suggestion.  The game will still not start.  I have tried the following.

    1. Allow ea app and PvZ GW2 access through the firewall

    2. I have restarted the machine multiple times.

    3. I have started the game and ea app using Run As Administrator

    @jarrodalbert Hey, so these errors are typically either network-related, or permissions-related.

    Check out the article here and look for (1053) and let me know if the steps help.

    If they do not let me know which steps have been performed!

    Cheers!
