try reinstalling anticheat with a batch script

[lilac lake]

In which directory do I launch the .bat file from, and is it safe to run?

[fallow mural]

it is safe to run (you can check what it's going to do yourself by right clicking and selecting "edit"), you can run it anywhere but to be sure place it in the same directory where "BattleBit.exe" is located (game folder)

place it in the same directory where "BattleBit.exe" is located (game folder)
especially if it detects game path as ""

[lilac lake]

I'm sending it

[fallow mural]

looks good, it should prompt you to reboot the PC after finished

[lilac lake]

In that case, I will do that

Looks like all went well with this (hopefully). I'll reboot my PC now.

Bummer. This did not fix my issue with BattleBit. 😦

This is the error I still get, for reference.

[fallow mural]

could you try reinstalling the game from X: drive to C:?

[lilac lake]

I suppose I could. It's only 2.5GB, right? 😅

[fallow mural]

also, are you on W11?

[lilac lake]

Installing to C: drive now

My PC's operating system is Windows 11 Insider Preview version. I am locked in on it basically because I don't want to hard reset my PC and lose data. 😭

[fallow mural]

found a war thunder thread with same issue, it seems like an windows update causing this

[lilac lake]

Same exact issue with the game installed freshly on the C: drive. :c

[lilac lake]

Well this is sad news. 😦

[fallow mural]

press Win+R, paste ms-settings:windowsupdate-history and see if there was an update recently

[lilac lake]

Most definitely, there were.

[fallow mural]

i see, were you able to play the game on Oct 29?

[lilac lake]

The last I was able to play the game was on 09/26/2024 as far as I'm able to recall, thanks to instant replay screen recordings.

[fallow mural]

could you try rolling back those ones?

(look them by KB number)

[lilac lake]

I'm not really sure how to or if I can.

I can only find the first one shown in your screenshot also

[fallow mural]

you should see "uninstall updates" if you scroll down to the bottom

or just open cmd.exe as an admin and run wusa /uninstall /kb:5045934 and wusa /uninstall /kb:5044376

[lilac lake]

Yep, I can uninstall the first one there

[fallow mural]

do that and see if that helps

[lilac lake]

I actually see and can uninstall that 2nd update mentioned as well now in the uninstall section

Uninstalled both

[fallow mural]

oke, reboot PC now and try launching the game

[lilac lake]

I'll have to reinstall it. I don't want it on my C: drive.

[fallow mural]

sure

[lilac lake]

Heck yeah mate! Thank you so much for taking some time out of your day to have helped me. Uninstalling those 2 particular Windows updates has solved the issue and I can play BattleBit again. 😄

[fallow mural]

glad to hear, enjoy the game

[lilac lake]

Went into Windowed mode to show ya. Thanks again.
