Have you ever tried to use cheats in a game and failed? It is because EasyAntiCheat is doing its job and preventing you from using illegal ways to get ahead in the online game you are playing.
If you are wondering who installed EasyAntiCheat on your PC or how to uninstall or disable Easy Anti-Cheat, this guide has all the answers for you. We will look at each of your concerns one by one.
Let us begin.
What is EasyAntiCheat?
Those who like games like Fortnite and other online games should be familiar with EasyAntiCheat. It is a tool that keeps an eye on your PC while you are playing any game and prevents cheats from working. Not only this, but it can also get you banned from an online game for not following the guidelines.
This anti-cheat program has been developed by Kamu to control cheaters in online multiplayer games. Also, it runs in the background while you play an online game and works on both Windows and Mac devices.
The focus of the creators of EasyAntiCheat is to make cheats not work at all and not just ban cheaters. Therefore, they work to eliminate the root cause of cheating instead of searching for cheaters and banning them from the gaming website. That is the reason why they have not explained how EasyAntiCheat works, as cheaters will find a way out of that too.
According to their marketing team, “They use a hybrid approach driven by controller code and machine learning.”
Also, if you check their support document, you’ll know something about how it works. It checks for unknown game files, untrusted system files, corrupted memory, debuggers, and the like.
However, EasyAntiCheat may not work if security features such as driver signature verification and kernel patch protection are disabled for your operating system. Typically, users won’t notice the tool running unless they experience a problem. You will find it in the task manager under the name “EasyAntiCheat Service” or “EasyAntiCheat.exe”.
When and how does EasyAntiCheat work?
EasyAntiCheat.exe runs when you play the games that require it; otherwise it will not run in the background.
As you start an online game that uses it, EasyAntiCheat will start running in the background and will stop running as soon as you stop playing that game. If you are wondering which games use this tool, let me tell you that it has become popular among most online multiplayer games. There are some games that use different cheat solutions, such as Steam’s built-in Valve Anti-Cheat System (VAC), while others use their own anti-cheat programs and features.
EasyAntiCheat website covers most of the popular games such as Fortnite Battle Royale, Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Wildlands, Far Cry 5, Rust, and Watch Dogs 2. If you want to know which game you have that uses it, check out this list provided on the official website: https://www.easy.ac/en-us/partners/. If you have any issues or queries regarding Easy Anti Cheat Tool, you can visit its official support service page.
How to uninstall EasyAntiCheat?
Obviously no one would want to know how to install EasyAntiCheat; instead, everyone is interested in knowing how to disable, delete or uninstall it from their PC and use cheats again to win a game.
As you know, there is no need to download Easy Anti-Cheat and it is installed automatically every time you play a game that uses it, so there is no way to get rid of this tool. However, you can manually uninstall Easy Anti-Cheat, but you will not be able to play the game that requires it, and if you download the same game again, the tool will prompt you for a reinstallation.
Let’s take the example of the most popular game that uses it, i.e. ‘Fortnite’.
If you install Fortnite it will install Easy Anti-cheat and when you uninstall the game Easy Anti-cheat will be uninstalled automatically.
Still, if you need the steps, here is how to manually uninstall Easy Anti-Cheat:
- Go to the folder that has the ‘EasyAntiCheat_Setup.exe’ file and double-click on it to start it.
- Once the setup opens, click on the ‘Uninstall’ option at the bottom left corner.
- But after doing this, you will not be able to play online games that use Easy Anti-Cheat. And if you try to start the game after uninstalling it, a User Account Control dialog will be displayed before Easy Anti-Cheat is automatically reinstalled. You can also re-install it by simply opening settings and clicking ‘Install Easy Anti-Cheat’.
