Rust keeps crashing due to its anti cheat system

[Niall_Boyle]

I have 259+ hours on Rust which worked perfectly but after a recent update a few months ago i cannot play Rust as the EAC has a Launch error (http://prntscr.com/grzaad) It keeps constantly happening even though i have disabled all my antiviruses and still it won't launch.

I have looked into this and EAC says that this is the error (1275) error_driver_blocked and i dont understand how to unblock the driver

This is the more detailed error message:

I have also reinstalled Rust and the EAC for the game

Hope you can help

while it is not Rust but squad, error is same and "fix" might be same also:
http://forums.joinsquad.com/topic/17645-solved-cannot-start-game-startservice-failed-1275/

so..
disable windows defender
Uninstall Rust
Restart
Install Rust

It is also possible that just disabling defender (for as long as it stays disabled, windows will auto-enable it again) and repairing/re-running it to allow EAC to update it's service might fix it.

Seemingly there have been a lot of issues with EAC and antiviruses blocking it, and while you don't have separate antivirus, you will have windows defender which can also cause issues.

Past said suggestion from googling the issue, I sadly have no real ideas.
