Hi @usenenadam,

Sorry to hear this.

It seems like you’ve tried many solutions we’d normally suggest in this scenario.

One other thing I recommend to try is a Selective Startup, as another application may be interfering with Easy Anti-Cheat. You mentioned this only happens occasionally, so perhaps it’s another process that isn’t alwasy running :thinking:

  1. Press the Windows key
  2. Type ‘msconfig’ and select ‘System Configuration’
  3. On the ‘General’ tab, select ‘Selective Startup’
  4. Deselect ‘Load startup Items’
  5. Reboot your PC
  6. Launch Vermintide 2 as normal

If the issue no longer persists after the Selective Startup, you will need to re-enable each of your background applications one-by-one, to determine which is interfering with Easy Anti-Cheat.

If the above isn’t successful, could you please provide me with your recent console log and launcher log so we can take a look. Thanks!

Thanks actually it worked, scannow didn’t find and corrupted file but after the scan problem is solved, weird.

Oh strange! Glad to hear that the issue is resolved now though :slight_smile:

What promoted me to use the CMD scan in my case was due to at some point during my meddling with the task manager getting a prompt from the anti cheat about some file not being trusted. Thus figured that there might be something like that here and the quickest way to let the files go back to being trusted was to verify them.

Well in my case it did find some bad spots though, system update gone awry.
