Hello everyone, I'd like to share some information with you.

This group was initially created to advocate for WIN7 users, although there are also some non-WIN7 users who have been affected. After a recent unlocking wave, there are still some WIN7 users in the group who haven't been unlocked.

Additionally, there are many cases in the group where users are locked due to issues related to W10 or other problems. At the moment, I don't have the time and resources to actively follow up on these issues, partly because I have my own job and other commitments. Therefore, the group will not be accepting new members, and there will be no further updates. However, you are still welcome to discuss and share information here if needed.

Recently, a dedicated player who also experienced W10 lock created another group called "High DPI." The format of the group closely follows the one I used when establishing this group. He has obtained my permission, and I believe that for those who need support in dealing with mistaken locks, you may choose to join his newly created group.

Best of luck to everyone in unlocking their situations.

AMD's latest driver has made their "Anti-Lag/+" feature available for CS2, which is implemented by detouring engine dll functions.

If you are an AMD customer and play CS2, DO NOT ENABLE ANTI-LAG/+; any tampering with CS code will result in a VAC ban.

Once AMD ships an update we can do the work of identifying affected users and reversing their ban.

W7 users are already unbanned

What's somewhat disheartening is that the primary wave of unlocks seems to be focused on Windows 7 users. There are still a few Windows 7 users in the community who haven't been unlocked, along with Windows 10 and 11 users.

I believe it will take some time for VALVE to address these wrongful bans. Our group, which was locked earlier, took about 10 days to be unlocked, possibly due to the order in which they were processed.

Perhaps in a few more days, it will be your turn to be unlocked. I also wish for the speedy unlocking of those who are still wrongfully banned.

Next, I will try to provide updates as much as possible, but because I also have work to attend to, I cannot update diligently. Please understand.

Because our resources are currently somewhat scattered, I will do my best to share what I know or have heard here. If you have any information to share, please feel free to add it below. I will update the important information in the main post. Some ongoing information will be pinned here, while other parts may be added as a separate page.
