Hello,
For about a month now, I would have trouble with a game (Fortnite) crashing a steady amount due to the anti cheat Epic Games uses, EasyAntiCheat. When I look in event viewer after a crash, it presents this:

I tried reinstalling the game which didn't work, along with internet research which didn't present many results and no working solutions. I disabled my AV to see if that was the cause as well, but no difference.
At this point I am at my wits' end.
Any solutions or ideas?
All will be greatly appreciated!
Cheers,
PM
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
Not sure if thats related or not, but this is a one week old Win 10 installation on what was a working PC. I did fully update everything, including the UEFI/BIOS and its been stable all week until basically last night.
**note: I just noticed Discord is restarting a few times too.... odd.
I'm also noticing a lot of errors in the logs for Windows Defender (Updated Windows Defender status successfully to SECURITY_PRODUCT_STATE_ON.) and before that theres several entries including the original actual "Error":

Same issue here and no, that didnt fix mine. I didn't have a 3rd party AV running in the first place. (Edit: I did add the Easy-AntiCheat exe files to the firewall as exceptions per another thread I was reading and the game manufacturers help FAQ and that did not help either.)
New OS on mostly older hardware that ran my game fine literally last week. Worked fine this week. Suddenly not so fine last night and only just had time to start to troubleshoot today. Its very irregular, but always that same error. The PC thinks the game closed correctly (no App error really in EV).
I believe I have found a solution. If you are using a 3rd party antivirus system like TotalAV, it might be blocking epic launcher. just check i think it is working for me
was already off for me so this definitely wasnt the culprit in my case. I have the exact same issues of easy anticheat errors and game crashing.
