Easy Anti-Cheat

[Simcha leon]

I recently installed Star Wars squadrons, however whenever I attempt to play it, it closes and shows a windows popup saying "untrusted system file (C:\Windows\System32\dnsapi.dll)"

Has anybody else had similar problems?

While dnsapi.dll is a necessary Windows file, it's part of the Application Layer of the TCP/IP Protocol Suite, many malware applications overwrite it.

Run sfc /scannow to check if its legit.

 

Theres an old article here with some other steps which are still relevant.
