This happened after July 30th. Worked perfectly before that. Battlefield 6 launches successfully and the EA Javelin AntiCheat service starts normally.
The game may remain stable in the main menu for a short period or may occasionally crash while still in the menu. If I successfully enter a multiplayer match, the game will eventually terminate at a seemingly random point during gameplay. There's never an error message when it crashes.
The crash timing is inconsistent. It is not tied to a specific amount of time after launching or joining a match.
Every crash generates identical EA Javelin AntiCheat events.
Application Log:

The error code has remained identical throughout all troubleshooting.
Steps Taken to Resolve
Verified Battlefield 6 game files through Steam.
Reinstalled EA Javelin AntiCheat.
Performed a clean Windows boot to eliminate startup applications and services.
Ran SFC /SCANNOW (no integrity violations found).
Ran DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth (completed successfully).
Performed an in-place Windows repair installation using Windows Update.
Updated the motherboard BIOS to the latest available version.
Reset BIOS to default settings.
Disabled EXPO memory profile.
Confirmed PBO is disabled.
Updated WD Black SN850X SSD firmware.
Verified Secure Boot and UEFI are enabled.
Tested with Memory Integrity (HVCI) both enabled and disabled (no change).
Uninstalled MSI Center.
Uninstalled Overwolf.
Uninstalled Macrium Reflect 8 and confirmed all related drivers and services were removed.
Eliminated Code Integrity errors related to the blocked psmounterex.sys driver.
Verified no third-party filesystem filter drivers were loaded beyond standard Microsoft filters.
Reviewed Event Viewer logs, confirming every crash produces the same EA Javelin AntiCheat ExitType: 95 (81) followed by Service Control Manager Event ID 7023 (EAAntiCheatService terminated with error %%4294901855).
Verified Windows storage integrity and updated all critical system firmware and drivers.
Researched Battlefield 6 and EA Javelin updates, identifying a Javelin platform update around July 30, 2026, after which the issue began.
Result: None of the above steps changed the behavior. Battlefield 6 continues to crash intermittently (sometimes in the menu, sometimes during gameplay) with the identical EA Javelin AntiCheat ExitType: 95 (81) error.
