Titanfall 2 won't launch – Windows 11 Smart App Control blocks DLLs (3077)
Hello,
Titanfall 2 won't launch on Windows 11 because Smart App Control blocks two DLL files included with the EA App installation.
Affected files:
- bin\x64_retail\launcher.dll
- bin\x64_retail\tier0.dll
Technical findings:
- Windows Code Integrity events: 3033, 3077 and 3089.
- Blocking policy: VerifiedAndReputableDesktop.
- Policy GUID: {0283ac0f-fff1-49ae-ada1-8a933130cad6}.
- Both DLLs are reported as unsigned and do not satisfy the required signing level.
- Smart App Control is enabled.
What I have already tried:
- Repaired Titanfall 2 using EA App.
- Verified that both DLLs are present.
- Compared their SHA-256 hashes before and after the repair; both remained identical.
- Confirmed that Windows still blocks the same DLLs after the repair.
I have not disabled Smart App Control or Microsoft Defender.
Could an EA representative confirm whether this is a known compatibility issue and whether an official fix is available?
I would like to run Titanfall 2 without disabling Windows security protections.
Thank you.
