they have no way of confirming the legitimacy of your exe so they mark even the real one, since you don't actually need it.
just be glad they let you know its not allowed, they don't usually do that.

There was a similar issue with Battlefield 2042, the anti-cheat system wrongly banned folk running the ICUE software.

Same with MSI Center.
EAC have kernel level access and can cause serious problem.

[zofryer]

Because that's normal. Any sane developer would have backed out anti-cheat to save their release on day one.

[p00se2]

same with roccat mouse software

Maybe they should make a competent anti-cheat then.

EAC is most common anticheat software in the market. It's most reliable anticheat.

"Most" reliable, relatively.

It still causes more issues than it fixes, in my opinion. Cheaters find ways around it constantly in every game so it really just hurts us legitimate users anymore.

Is that why cheaters are already in the game and false flags are everywhere?

This is one of the most annoying things. I use ICUE for fan control and cooling of my cpu. And i also like to monitor my temps when i know im going to gaming for a long period of time. And with not being able to see whats going is annoying i did install HW monitor but i have to complete shut down ICUE and now even more worried about damaging my processor.

Easy Anticheat is one of the worst examples of an Anticheat software.
Technically it causes more problems than it fixes, by denying players to play because of program "XYZ", performance issues all over the place and still letting cheaters pass-by.
In my time of gaming the last 10 years there were no worse Anticheat than EAC.
