Windows 10: My computer is causing games to crash from a easy anticheat error

I have been playing rust and recently my game crashing with no error message or anything of the sorts. My computer is more than capable of running the game without crashing. I have already tried to update Bios, Go back on drivers for both windows and NVidia, i have factory reset my pc twice, i have turned XMP off and on no result has changed. I have tried to play the game at the lowest graphic settings possible, turn off all possible features for crashes still nothing will help. I can play for five minutes and crash with no error or i can play for five hours then crash with no errors. The only

Games With Easy AntiCheat (or anticheat overall) Cause Lag and Badly Reduced Performance

Hi Johnny . J,



Thanks for raising your concern in Microsoft Community.



It sounds like games With Easy AntiCheat (or anticheat overall) on your Windows 10 Education cause overheating and will crash when loading. Feel free to correct me if my understanding is biased. Sorry to hear this. There are so many factors that can cause low PC performance and games to crash. But now that you've confirmed that this only occurs on games with Easy AntiCheat, things get a lot easier.

Kindly try the solutions below to troubleshoot:

1. Update your Windows to the latest version.
   
   [This step ruled out the system update factor.]
   
2. Temporarily close the third-party security programs and optimization software that may exist under the system (with firewall nature), and perform a clean boot on your system: Press and hold Windows logo key+R > Enter: msconfig > Hit Enter > Switch to Services tab > Check to hide Microsoft services > Click Disable All > Reboot the device.
   
   [This step eliminates the interference of third-party software, especially antivirus optimization software.]
   

If the problem is still there, kindly contact Easy AntiCheat Support where a more in-depth investigation can be done there so that you can get a more satisfactory explanation and solution to this problem.

Feel free to reach back if you need further assistance.

Games With Easy AntiCheat (or anticheat overall) Cause Lag and Badly Reduced Performance

I Have No Idea of What This is, But Whenever I Play a Game That Has Easy AntiCheat, My Computer Gets Very Hot. It Tries to Load The Game But Always Ends Up Crashing, Or Me Having To Reset My Laptop. I'm Running Windows 10 (Windows For Education) And Any Other Game That Doesn't Use AntiCheat Works Just Fine.

Works Just Fine.

If You Have Any Questions Feel Free to Ask

 

Why did moving Easy Anticheat to a different Drive break Fortnite on the secondary account?

I have a windows computer with two separate hard drives. I am the admin account, and there is another account as well. Recently I moved a bunch of stuff from my main drive (the one with windows on it) to the secondary drive. This includes the files for, Easy Anticheat, Epic Games, and Fortnite. This had no effect on playability on the admin account, however on the second account it created a host of issues. I have solved most of them, however, whenever I attempt to launch Fortnite from the second account, I get an error message claiming that Easy Anticheat is not installed. This is completely untrue, as the game works just fine on the main account, other games that use Easy Anticheat work just fine on the second account, and I have seen the files in File Explorer. I suspect it is caused by the change of file location, but I have no idea how to fix this. Is there anything that can be done?
