ifixed mine already

make sure your folders are set to allow and not deny.
C:\Users\(username)\AppData\Local
right click arma 3 and go to properties
click the security tab
click edit
click on your user
now make sure your user has the ALLOW colum checked for all or them.

Try to verify the integrity of the game cache. :)
Yo guys, I don't know what your exact problem is, but I just made a topic on a problem I encountered with battleye. http://steamcommunity.com/app/107410/discussions/1/412448792363802898/.

Be sure to give it a thumbs up if it helped you so others can see it.

Not the same problem, but all you have to do with that error is redownload BattlEye o.o

I just had the same problem. But I just "fixed" that. Well, go to your Arma3 Ordner and search for "arma3battleye". Just run this .exe and u dont have your problem. I dont know If u have the same problem, but im pretty sure that's it. Just try and. Reinstall arma dont work.

Here are the steps i took when i had this error for prosterity:
1) Re-verify game files via steam [no effect]
2) restart + re-verify [no effect]
3) delete ../steam/../arma3/BattlEye/ folder contents, then re-verify [no effect]
4) added administrator privlages to battleye.exe and battleye_x64.exe [no effect]
5) run battleye unistaller, then run installer in ../steam/../arma3/BattlEye/ folder [effect: changed error to "BattlEye Service installation failed"]
6) reinstalled ARMA3 [no effect]
7) restarted and deleted profile in C:/user/<name>/arma3 and arma3_other_profiles [no effect]
8) restarted and deleted C:/Program Files (x86)/Common Files/BattlEye [Solved Issue]
