Hi @DeadGuyForYou, there appears to be a conflict with EAC and your GPU drivers.

Please try uninstalling your current GPU drivers with a dedicated driver removal tool e.g. DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) and then reinstalling fresh drivers as a clean slate.

Please let me know how this goes.

Reinstalling the driver did not help. My graphics card and motherboard can only run on a specific driver version, I can’t install a newer one. The game worked fine, I went to the dentist, came back and I started getting this error.

Ah I see. In which case, please try other potential solutions to ‘Untrusted System File’ errors here:  
[https://support.fatshark.se/hc/en-us/articles/360007853137--PC-How-to-Resolve-Easy-Anti-Cheat-Errors#h\_01GHVDMW3YZ3BR0C75212PGV68](https://support.fatshark.se/hc/en-us/articles/360007853137--PC-How-to-Resolve-Easy-Anti-Cheat-Errors#h_01GHVDMW3YZ3BR0C75212PGV68)

We’re also investigating separate issues with the latest EAC version and looking into what we can do for that e.g. a possible rollback. If the solutions above don’t help, perhaps this may help. This isn’t set in stone just yet, as we’re hitting some technical hurdles, but I’ll update when I know more!

None of this helped.

Noted, thanks for the update!

That’s expected - Easy Anti-Cheat only applies to Official realm 🙂

I’m still waiting on news regarding action being taken with the current EAC version. Hopefully I’ll have info to share soon.

@DeadGuyForYou, we have now rolled back to the previous EAC version, which we’re hoping will resolve recent issues. Please can you check and let me know. Thanks!
