Just avoid the games that use them. Games and the software they install should NEVER EVER run kernel-level. Also the games that use those ac’s are bad anyways.

If you must play those games, passthrough your GPU and hide the fact that the VM is a VM.

Agreed. I have no desire to give EA root access to my system, full access to everything I do on it … just to play a game.

  Well…microsoft was allowing kernel-level apps (in general). Now they’re shooing every app from the kernel.
  
  Good: ACs won’t run as root anymore :D
  
  Bad: It includes AVs (anti-viruses) D:
  
  Of course, it’s rolling out slowly.

Careful with that, I’ve heard of folks getting banned because it can still look fishy.
