DLL injectors, cheat engine

[Heroquetarro10]

hello guys, I've had a DLL injector and cheat engine open on my computer whilst playing a non-steam game. My question is, will I get vac banned? Steam wasn't open while I had these programs open (wasn't even signed in)

No, you won't. You have to be joined to vac-protected server to get vacbanned

Thing is you just admitted to using a cheat. Wait till a mod sees..

Any third party software you run is at your own risk. If you don't know if something will cause a ban or even suspect there's a possibility it could, then you probably shouldn't run it.

These forums are full of people claiming they were banned simply for running cheat engine in another game or just by having cheat engine on their computer and not even using it. Take that as you want. Of course, as you probably know personally, cheaters lie.
