Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum.
Thank you for posting your issue regarding the launch difficulties. I understand that following the recent Windows update, your games utilizing Easy Anti-Cheat are displaying an error message which is preventing the software from starting correctly.
This behavior typically occurs when the anti-cheat security protocols encounter a conflict with specific system security settings or driver configurations updated during the latest Windows rollout.
To help you get back to your games, kindly try the following troubleshooting steps and keep me informed of outcome:
1. Try adjusting memory integrity settings
A frequent cause for this specific driver interaction involves the "Memory Integrity" feature within Windows. Adjusting this can often resolve the conflict:
- Open the Start Menu, type Windows Security, and press Enter.
- Go to Device Security > Core isolation details.
- Toggle the Memory integrity setting to Off.
- Restart your computer and attempt to launch the game again.
Official Microsoft Article: You can find more information on managing these security features here: Device protection in Windows Security.
2. Refresh HID-Compliant Drivers
Since the message specifically references the HID-compliant driver, refreshing the driver state in the Device Manager can help clear the communication hurdle:
- Right-click the Start button and select Device Manager.
- Expand the Keyboards and Mice and other pointing devices sections.
- Right-click each HID-compliant device and select Uninstall device.
- Restart your PC. Windows will automatically reinstall clean versions of these standard drivers upon startup.
Note: third-party software sometimes used for macros or RGB lighting (such as Razer Synapse, Logitech G-Hub, or specialized macro tools) can interact with the HID driver in a way that triggers a security flag. I recommend temporarily closing these applications before launching the game to see if the behavior improves.
Please try these steps and let me know the outcome. Thank you for your patience while we work through this together.
I look forward to your update.
