Stuck "Initializing" Easy Anti Cheat, Can't Launch

[postmanmanman]

Played fine for a week, suddenly today I am stuck on the Easy Anti Cheat launch. It just reads "Initializing" and hangs there permanently. Can't get into the game at all.

Things I have tried:

Deleting Easy Anti Cheat and reinstalling via command prompt.
Repairing Easy Anti Cheat via command prompt.
Updating Windows.
Updating drivers.
Closing everything else.
Running as an administrator. (lol)

No dice on anything. Anyone else see this?

Alright, I can add deleting and reinstalling to the list of things that did not work.

Same here, but stuck before the anti cheat screen... :D Steam says it's running, but there's nothing, just staring on my desktop.

Nvm, after verified integrity of files some Epic update was installed, looks fine now.
