Uninstall Anti-Cheats
Completely uninstall the following anti-cheat software, as they block the loader from working: Faceit AC, Riot Vanguard, and ACE (AntiCheatExpert).
Close all games and launchers (Steam, Ubisoft Connect, Riot Client, etc.).
Open Control Panel → Programs → Programs and Features (or press
Win + R, typeappwiz.cpl, and press Enter).In the list of installed programs, locate Faceit Anti-Cheat, Riot Vanguard, and ACE / AntiCheatExpert.
Right-click each one and select Uninstall. Follow the prompts until the uninstall is fully complete.
Restart your PC after uninstalling all listed anti-cheats. This step is mandatory or drivers may stay loaded in memory.
After rebooting, make sure they are fully gone:
Press
Win + R, typeservices.msc, press EnterConfirm there are no services related to Faceit, Vanguard, or ACE still running
If any remain, uninstall again or remove them before continuing
Do NOT reinstall these anti-cheats unless you plan to play games that require them. Reinstalling them will cause injection to fail.
Important notes:
Riot Vanguard installs kernel-level drivers and always requires a reboot to fully remove.
Faceit AC may reinstall itself if you open the Faceit client again.
Having even one of these installed can prevent the loader from opening or injecting.
