    Uninstalling PTS client also uninstalls EasyAntiCheat

    Unable to play normal game again after uninstalling PTS client because "EasyAntiCheat service is not running" error, when I click play.
    I tried to check files in the properties, everything checked out fine. There could be a separate way to install EAC? I'll have to install 50gb instead now, will take 2 hours, but so you know it can happen I created this thread.

    Going into the d2 folder and you will see a anti cheat folder inside there is the setup.

    This happened to me also when I uninstalled the PTS but like above there is an eac setup folder within the game, run that and the game will launch with no errors.

    Okay, thanks. It took 40 mins to fully reinstall the game, could be much faster
