Run Rust as an administrator:

  1. Go to Program Files (x86) > Steam > steamapps > common > Rust

Still having trouble? Try reinstalling Easy Anti-Cheat:

  3. Find the EasyAntiCheat folder
  4. Run the EasyAntiCheat_Setup.exe file
  5. Choose Rust from the game list
  6. Click "Repair Service"

If none of these methods work, you might need to verify your game files through Steam:

  1. Open Steam
  2. Right-click on Rust in your library
  3. Select "Properties"
  4. Go to the "Local Files" tab
  5. Click "Verify integrity of game files"

Remember, keeping your graphics drivers and Windows up to date can also prevent this error from occurring.
