Error 10022 / EAC possible fix!

[Calb]

TL:DR and fix at bottom!
Hey everyone, the past few days i've been having an issue where any game running with EAc (Easy anti cheat) will not run or launch. It will open up to an error, most often error 10022. I haven't really been able to find any solutions online until last night.

The short and simple to it is that EAC updated, but did not overwrite it's security certificates, causing a mismatch and not allowing any games using EAc (smite, Fortnite, Apex Legends to run.)

The fix is simple
1. Find where your game is installed
2. Open up the EAC folder in that game directory
3. Find the certificates folder
4. Delete the certificates folder
5. Verify the integrity of your game (or your launchers equivalent)
6. Play!

TL:DR EAC updated, but fudged it's security certs. Delete the certs folder in your game directory, verify integrity, done.

its a dumb luck reflex response for impatient people . . . eac has issues just like smite / steam does . . . takes a minute to become aware, find and then fix it . . . 99% of this games 'issues' are resolved by walking away from the computer for a while and doing something of real value :)
