Hi people, I'm new here and I've got a reoccurring issue with my .dll files.
The issue is related to games on my PC that use EAC (Easy Anti Cheat), and every time I launch a game using EAC, I am prompted with Untrusted system file (C:\Windows\System32\a random dll file). I thought the issue might have been related to one game, Apex. But on further attempts to fix the issue, I found that other games that use EAC were also throwing the same "untrusted system file" error, and it's not always the same .dll file.
I have tried the generic SFC scan/repair commands but have had no luck, along with deleting/replacing dll files from system32.
Today I checked my system32 dll files by using CMD & sigcheck, I have found that pretty much every .dll file scanned is marked Unsigned (Example shown below)
Verified: Unsigned
Link date: 2:27 PM 23/01/1917
Publisher: n/a
Company: Microsoft Corporation
Description: Unicode Normalization DLL
Product: Microsoft« Windows« Operating System
I have a support ticket opened through EAC, but their replies take days.
Any help is appreciated, here's hoping I don't need to re-install windows.
