How to fix failure during update process FIFA 23?
Electronic Arts formally unveiled EA anti-cheat for PC a few weeks ago. FIFA 23 is one of the first video games to make use of this new anti-cheating technology. Unfortunately, as is customary, there will inevitably be some problems with the introduction of a new system. If you pre-ordered the FIFA 23 Ultimate Edition on PC, the problems this time are rather substantial.
The “EA AntiCheat Service detected a problem” message prevents UE players from accessing the early access version of the game. Message: “Please restart the game”.
The problem is that EA AntiCheat is a kernel-mode anti-cheat. Is there a solution to this, then? We can’t guarantee that the presented solutions work completely because we don’t have this problem, but we can share with you the two ideas currently being discussed in the community. Many players claimed that the FIFA 23 EA AntiCheat problem has been resolved due to these updates. The initial one is simpler. All you have to do is make sure FIFA 23 and Origin are running as administrators:
- Right-click the Origin executable or shortcut.
- Select “Run as Administrator” (shield icon) from the drop-down option.
- When prompted, respond with “Yes.”
- For the FIFA 23 exe file, repeat the procedure.
ReInstall
If the aforementioned approach didn’t help you resolve the FIFA 23 EA Anti Cheat problem, there is a second, slightly more difficult approach. Running the game as an administrator is still necessary, but there are a few extra procedures to take this time around in order for it to be successful. The steps are as follows:
- Look for the EA Anti-Cheat installation in the C:\Program Files\EA\AC folder.
- Uninstall EA Anti-Cheat.
- Run Origin as an administrator.
- To reinstall EA AntiCheat, launch FIFA 23.
- Once it’s finished, restart the computer.
- Run Origin as an administrator.
- Disable your antivirus program.
- Launch FIFA 23.
This one will probably make the issue go away. As a final resort, get in touch with EA support and describe your issue if the FIFA 23 EA Anti-Cheat error still exists after using this solution. Hopefully, the developers will address this critical bug as soon as possible and provide FIFA 23 Ultimate Edition buyers a refund for the time they paid for early access.
