Javelin Anticheat makes the game UNPLAYABLE

Hello, I made a previous post where I detailed how my game simply hard-crashed into desktop without any error message. Using Windows Event Viewer and WinDBG, I've managed to track down the issue to the Javelin anticheat malfunctioning. 

WinDBG especifically displayed:

EXCEPTION_CODE: 0xc0000005 (Access violation)
ATTEMPT TO WRITE TO ADDRESS 0x0000000000000000
FAULTING_MODULE: bf6.exe
FUNCTION: ffxFsr2ResourceIsNull

And, according to ChatGPT, "ffxFsr2ResourceIsNull → this is part of AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution 2 (FSR2) — the upscaling and temporal reconstruction tech Battlefield 6 uses. So your crash isn’t in Javelin itself or your GPU driver — it’s a null pointer write inside the FSR2 renderer. That’s a graphics pipeline error (not kernel or CPU related)." Basically, I believe that Battlefield tries to use a GPU resource that is invalid.

As to Windows Event Viewer, it displayed:

"A fatal error occurred while creating a TLS client credential. The internal error state is 10013. Process: backgroundTaskHost"

That menas that the Windows background service failed to create a secure channel, basically a process crasged mid-session and Javelin insta boots me off the game (because BackgroundTaskHost.exe is used by EA and no longer gets the authorization). 

I have run out of fixes, as I have: 

  1. Repaired game files and anticheat.
  2. Disabled all background software/overlays.
  3. Whitelisted game + anticheat in antivirus (Norton) and disabled Norton temporarily.
  4. Deleted game config folder, forced DirectX 11 mode, disabled FSR2, and other rendering tweaks.
  5. Ran sfc /scannow, DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth, and netsh winsock reset.
  6. Updated GPU driver (NVIDIA) clean install, confirmed BIOS and other system drivers are up to date.

What else can I do?

    I've done all that and more. NOTHING changed regarding my PC setup from Monday through Tuesday EXCEPT the BF6 update. It crashed immediately with the infamous Javelin anticheat message. I have no overlays running, adn have neither downloaded, installed or used cheats, ever. EA is free to remote into my PC to confirm. 

    I repaired the game. I uninstalled javelin and reinstalled it. I ran the game and Javelin as administrator. I uninstalled both, restarted the PC and downloaded all 70GB again and reinstalled. Ran the game as administrator. Result? Same Javelin anticheat message and game crash.

    At this point, like you, there is nothing else I can do on my end. I have a $100 game that I can no longer play because EA is convinced, absent anything tangible, that I'm cheating.
