GameGuard Initialization Error 114

[Erik]

I’ve been attempting to play the game, but most of the time, I encounter a “GameGuard failed to initialize” error (code 114). The fixes I’ve tried don’t seem to help consistently. Interestingly, there are times when the game works perfectly, but the very next day, I find myself troubleshooting again.

Here’s what I’ve tried so far:

Restarting my system
Deleting the GameGuard folder
Stopping all running processes
Disabling my antivirus software (Malwarebytes)

Unfortunately, I’m not the only one experiencing this issue and mainly just looking for peeps with another step i can try

Edit : try uninstalling asus Armoury Crate

I have the same problem and still no fix. Like you, I've tried everything others have suggested to no avail. GameGuard is absolutely the WORST possible option they could go with, and they did. I love how Win11 is NOT listed on the GameGuard Supported OS list on that really outdated FAQ it sends you to which is of absolutely no help whatsoever.

Win11, RTX 3080.

I may have found something, if you’re using an ASUS ROG motherboard and have the Armoury Crate software installed. Here’s what you can try:

1. Uninstall Armoury Crate. You’ll need to download the uninstaller from the ASUS website to do this.
2. Next, go into your BIOS settings and disable the ‘Download Armoury Crate’ option.

The game starts up without any issues.......
I have to say that's absolutely insane that i have to go into the Bios and change stuff to be able to play
