I think Genshin removed their anticheat after it was used by ransomware

The anticheat ignores its kernel module fails to load on Wine since v3.8, otherwise the AC is still there. Same goes for ZZZ. The ransomware does not require user to have GI installed to run so GI removing the anticheat would do nothing, MS had to unsign vulnerable driver. Idk if they did.

True. Maybe MS just doesn't want to sign their driver anymore.

Oh really? Then why does it still need permission to run on Windows? I thought that was due to the anticheat ?
