You need to disable Hyper-V to launch FACEIT AC

It is not possible to have Hyper-V running while using the Anti-cheat. We are aware that some developers do need it for their work, but unfortunately we are not able to allow it in order to maintain a fair playing environment.

On recent versions of Windows, disabling Hyper-V in the Control Panel does not actually fully disable it. You can fully disable Hyper-V off by doing the following:

  • Click Start and search for Command Prompt
  • Right-click on Command Prompt and then click Run as administrator.
  • If the User Account Control dialog box appears, confirm that the action it displays is what you want, and then click Continue.
  • Then type:
bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off
  • Press enter. Then type:
reg add "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\DeviceGuard\Scenarios\HypervisorEnforcedCodeIntegrity" /v "Enabled" /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
  • Press enter again.
  • Restart your computer

If you previously modified some registry settings to enable Hyper-V, this may not work and it will stay enabled. Please read about other ways to disable it on Microsoft website.

If you need to revert those changes and re-enable Hyper-V after you've finished playing, you can do the following:

  • Click Start and search for Command Prompt
  • Right-click on Command Prompt and then click Run as administrator.
  • If the User Account Control dialog box appears, confirm that the action it displays is what you want, and then click Continue.
  • Then type:
bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype auto
  • Restart your computer

If this does not work, please ensure that hardware virtualization support is turned off in the BIOS settings, if this does not resolve the issue please try turning off Memory Integrity in the Core Isolation settings within the control panel.

If none of these solutions  work for you, we would kindly ask you to get in touch with us via this link and our dedicated CS team will assist in getting you up and running: Contact Support
