I noticed that when i repair the game, the following files inside the game folder get redownloaded:
as well as the one in EAAntiCheat
and the one in C:\Program Files\EA\AC
I made a backup of all of them, launched the game - works.
Closed the game, relaunched - error.
Copied the backup files over - works
replacing those 4 files with the backup makes the game run. Seems like after launch they get replaced by an older version
Seems like launching the game reverts the version from 07/03/2026 and the ones from repair work even though it seems to be an older anticheat version.
Hello friend!
Penguin curious about this, still trying to learn what's actually going on, does launching the game when it works change any of the files Windows 11 user access permissions? (Not having the issue over here to replicate it for testing.)
Right click Properties and Security tab: Read, Write, Modify
It should look something like this:
Do any of these values change after having successfully launched the game?

Many thanks!

Before and after the launch both have only read and read an execute.
Same Permissen settings for my backup files that launch the game one time
I gave the 4 files (4 broken files that are downloaded each time i launch the game successfully) manually full permissions like on your picture, but i still get the same error when launching. Backup files with extra permissions work anyway and get replaced either way.
I assume the game downgrade those files upon launch, making javelin go "too old" after the next game start.
I mentioned above that those 4 files are from 07.03.2026, i think they are an older version, but based on the file version they seem newer i think. Either way, the game downloads older or broken files upon launch but game repair downloads the correct files to play the game once.
Broken EAAC infos
Working EAAC i use as my backup
Permissions for both files were as pictured here. With those permissions my backup works one time
