How to Fix "The application encountered an unrecoverable error" and EA AntiCheat Error

Some FIFA 23 players experience an error when they try to run the game with the message "The application encountered an unrecoverable error. Click OK to create a memory dump, then please share it on our support site". Another common problem similar to this is the EA AntiCheat error.

The application encountered an unrecoverable error

Since the solutions to both problems are identical, I will share useful information with you in this article. Just follow the steps below to fix "The application encountered an unrecoverable error" and the EA AntiCheat error.

How to Fix "The application encountered an unrecoverable error" and EA AntiCheat Error

Method #1

EA SPORTS FIFA 23 does not launch on some PCs because EA AntiCheat blocks some applications running in the background. In that case, you should close or uninstall the applications listed below:

  • MSI Afterburner
  • RTSS Rivatuner Statistics Server
  • Riot Vanguard Anti-Cheat
  • FACEIT Anti-Cheat

Then run the Origin or EA Desktop app as an administrator. Check if the workaround fixed your issue. If your problem still persists, the second method will most likely fix it.

Method #2

Reinstall EA AntiCheat by following the steps below thoroughly:

  • Exit Steam and Origin (or EA Desktop app)
  • Go to the folder where FIFA 23 is installed.
  • Delete EAAntiCheat.GameServiceLauncher.dll and EAAntiCheat.GameServiceLauncher.exe files.
  • Then open the "__Installer" folder.
  • Run the EAAntiCheat.Installer.exe file in the EAAntiCheat folder.
  • Select FIFA 23 from the list.
  • Hit Uninstall
  • Then click the Install button.
