Before this happen, some couple days ago, i have to add exception for easy anti cheat, because my avast premium security has detect that easy anti cheat is not trusted....

But, tonight, right now, with the latest update of war thunder/easy anti cheat, I can not launch the game because easy anti cheat has detects my avast antivirus as an "Untrusted file system"........... WTF.......

Avast is known for causing trouble. Not only on EAC, WT or other games. It can screw up your system as well. Like changing user permissions, etc. I recommend you to uninstall it and use the builtin Windows AV solution. For home computers there is no need for 3rd party AV software anymore

Step 1. Uninstall and purge your computer of Avast

And that's it. You don't need anything else other than Windows Defender.

avast is bad i sugest u purge ur PC of avast as it can cause proboems with any game that uses EAC at any time. I use bitdefender so i would sugest that as i have not had problems yet with that in past 3 years

this is actually the fourth time this happened in the last 5 years...

disabling Avast didn't help (and i guess it still doesn't) since you can't disable it completely (nor does putting EAC on the trusted list etc) - the only things that worked were to either completely remove Avast (or AVG since it's basically the same thing with just a different GUI) and use a different av/security software or to

wait until EAC / Avast sort it out (varies between a couple of days and a few weeks usually)

Only use windows anti-viris and firewall. Anything else is actually proven Malware that hurts your system performance and security. There is no arguing this. Its been a proven fact for 5 years.

Its proven fact too, that there is something wrong with easy anti cheat with today, not the AVAST premium security....

Stop defending that defect app.....

exactly, It never happened...until now. Windows defender has the same virus detection rate as Avast. The only difference is a slightly better brower malware protection. But unless you don´t know what you are doing and/or visit shady websites on a regular basis you don´t need that. But it´s up to you what you´re doing. And I´m sure, sooner or later you´ll find a solution... good luck

All antivirus's are just bloatware these days, they slow your PC down just to tell you your PC is running slower so you'll pay up for premium service
