How to Turn Off SGuard?

[D.A.R.K.]

I'm gonna assume SGuard is the anti-cheat of this game, and similar to EAC (Easy Anti-Cheat) it will probably be a pain to me. I don't care about playing online with random players, I'll play only with my friends the same way we play 7 Days to Die. In order to play 7 Days to Die we turn off EAC so we aren't disturbed by it.

So... I think I didn't install SGuard but the game is kicking me off when I say "no" to run this ♥♥♥♥ , how do I disable SGuard? How to stop the game from requiring me to install it?

Yeah, I want to get it to play single player/offline, but not if they're using a retarded and invasive anti-cheat system like this.

Yea this bugs me as well. Solo here too.. And reading the forums it sounds like Anti cheat doesn't even work. Oh well. So tired of multiplayers ruining Singleplayer fun.

If you remove it the game kicks you out of the main menu saying it's not active so you can't even play single player without it.

I turned off the service and deleted it and then i couldnt play The Front at all. Had to reinstall the game to get the anti cheat stuff back on so i could keep playing

Hard pass here then thanks for the heads up.. I'm not against DRM but when it effects solo play and doesn't even work, i am.
