After patch 1.9 the game doesn't start anymore (anticheat problem with the HDD!)

Product: EA SPORTS™ WRC
Platform:Steam-PC
Summarize your bug After patch 1.9 the game doesn't start anymore. Probably a problem related to the new anticheat system and installation on hard drive other than C:\, and perhaps even the type of HDD does matter!... some users say that the C drive MUST be a NVMe or M.2 but NOT a SATA!
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Try to install the game on different drive other than C:\ and install it on a SATA type (I have the game on X:\) See also here: https://steamcommunity.com/app/1849250/discussions/0/4520008779862733926/ https://steamcommunity.com/app/1849250/discussions/0/4520009262276829496/ https://steamcommunity.com/app/1849250/discussions/0/4515505814155022909/ https://steamcommunity.com/app/1849250/discussions/0/4520009057926400947/
What happens when the bug occurs? When you launch the game, the splash screen appears, after which everything closes
What do you expect to see? A fast resolution! Is clear that the anticheat is responsible for this disaster!!!

Probably a problem related to the new anticheat system and two differet factors:

- installation on hard drive other than C:\

- the type of HDD does matter!

To run the game it MUST be installed on C:\ drive but it ãlso has to be a NVMe or a M.2, NOT a SATA!
