If it could help; here are the words I sent in "support" on the Webroot website, openning the ticket :
"Hello,
First of all, I wish you all the best for 2021.
Few of us around the world have the same issue with the game "Star Wars Squadrons" published by EA Games (please, follow the link to the EA forum):
https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/Since-12-17-2020-quot-Launch-Error-Failed-to-start-the-game-2/td-p/9872225
The game worked well for several weeks, but 3 times, after updates, the game doesn't launch: the Easy Anti-Cheat software launches, but when the loading ended, we all have the same error message:
"Launch Error - Failed to start game ( 2 )
We've all done some game repairs, reinstallations, and other checks for updates to drivers, Windows, etc., but nothing helped.
It turned out that the thing we all have in common is our anti-virus: webroot;
So we have concluded that there is a problem between Easy Anti-Cheat and Webroot; and that the only way to work around the problem is to uninstall Webroot.
On two occasions EA published a patch which fixed the problem (in 1 week the first time, and in 24 hours the second time), but since December 17, 2020 we are all unable to launch the game. We are aware that we are a minority affected by this problem, however we still hope that EA, Easy Anti-Cheat and Webroot will give us time to work on a lasting solution to this issue: we have bought a game which, for some, has been accompanied by investment in joystick, throttle and pedal, but which for a month have been sleeping in boxes just waiting to be used again.
Waiting for a response from you, I wish you a good week.
Best regards."
If all happens as for me, you should recieve a response that invited you to install an app : wsalogs.exe
It will generate a log and send it to Webroot.
After that a message will propose you to scheddule a phone meeting with an intervention of a technician. He sould uninstal your version of Webroot and install a new one.
I realy wish that will help you.
