F1 25 Anti-Cheat Failure on Game Launch

Hello,

I’m attempting to launch F1 25 on a device that is admittedly slightly below the minimum spec for the game, and trying to launch the game after hours of installation I get hit with security violations and errors in the launcher preventing the game from running. First attempted launch came up with a security violation for not having enough storage space (the internal storage is too small and acts purely as a boot drive so an 128gb external microSD card has been supplemented for installation) so after running storage sense in Windows (fresh install of Windows 10 Pro via USB made from the most recent media installer from Microsoft’s site) cleared enough for 1gb Free Space on the internal storage, which then prompted me with multiple errors as provided. Computer information is provided in the last image. Any help with this would be appreciated & thank you 🙂

    Hey there,

    Thank you for your report. I am checking your attached images and I see your computer has 2Gb RAM and our minimum requirements is 8Gb RAM.

    I am afraid you won't be able to run the game on that machine.

    I appreciate the reply and input! Taking that into consideration, I’ve tried amending the lack of RAM issue as well as doing some updates and changes like having a larger internal storage to store the game instead of using a microSD card and using a freshly installed copy of Windows 11 Pro having only added Steam and F1 25 to the system, however this time around while the game gets past the anti-cheat threshold like I was experiencing before, now it will act as if the game is launching, then any services attributed to the game close out and essentially cancel the launch without any notice of error. I will attest that some features of this computer may be slightly lower than recommended minimum spec, however is there any recommendation as how to remedy this new issue? I’ve got all applications pertaining to Javelin & F1 25 set to run as administrator by default and allotted more virtual memory to be used for more overhead however neither of these had fixed the current issue. The best sign of this current issue is seeing in steam the game listing going from “Stop” when launching back to “Play” without any input.

  • Since this titled topic should be pinned to the top of this F1 forum, and if Groguet is the manager so how can he tell us that this Anticheat is also stopping a lot of people from playing this game because it crashes, gives no log on to why it crashes and stops any of us having this issue from playing the game?

    So what's your input, Groguet, onto why this is happening?  Why is EA blatantly allowing such a shoddy Anticheat from allowing us to play their game with no fix in sight?

    I have this same issue there is no possible user end fix. The f1 25 version of javelin anti cheat is broken if you try to launch from steam. I payed 60$ for the game and now can’t get a refund because my supposed playtime exceeds 2 hours. This is because I spent at least 8 hours trying to troubleshoot the game so it would launch but no success. This is a known game breaking issue and it’s a joke that the product is still listed on the steam store with this issue.

    Yea there's a lot of innocent programs out there that get flagged by their Anti-cheat. Below is a list of programs user's have previously reported as causing an issue so if you have any of the following you may want to make sure they aren't running before starting the game.

    • AutoHotkey
    • DS4Windows
    • iCUE
    • JoyToKey
    • Keys2XInput
    • Reshade
    • Windhawk
    • MSI Gaming Intelligence
    • Steelseries GG
    • Daemon Tools
