Hello!

Thank You, tryed doing all the steps and deleted all CH folders, but the issue remains unsolved 😭

Remember that security software can update daily sometimes multiple times, what works one day may not work another.

Extract trainer and make sure trainer/launcher/editor is in a folder excluded from virus scans. Empty quarantine folder if needed or set anything trainer related (paths and EXE's) to ALLOW. Disable any Live/Active/Real-Time tools which may trigger false positives in security software which may terminate the game/trainer when it's activated or options used.

C:\Users\USERNAMEHERE\Cheathappens

may need to be added to exclusions as well. Run trainer as admin, read the instructions and try again.

Anti-virus help page. Link

Also have both 3.1 and latest .NET CORE and FRAMEWORK

.NET Core 3.1 Desktop Runtime x86 Link
.NET Core 3.1 Desktop Runtime x64 Link
.NET Core Current Runtime x86 Link
.NET Core Current Runtime x64 Link
.NET Framework (get latest) Link

(Both of the Net-Core MUST be installed x86 and x64)

Reboot PC When done.

Thank You for Your detailed response!

In the end I had to change my antivirus (I had Eset Nod, nothing I did short of deleting it worked), becouse just reinstalling it didn't work. Now with new antivirus (Kasp IS) everything works as normal.

So I got to play this game with the trainer and I gotta say even though the anti-cheat is there I'm still enjoying using it / thanks for the trainer! The best way to use it is to use the cheats when the levels are loaded and then right before you complete the levels, then turn them off fast and you should be good. sometimes the anti does get you BUT hey just reload the game and you are good // Stay awesome out there /

good day i am having a problem with the trainer The trainer which is 44725 gives 0x2 error in the game folder when I run it outside the folder it does not give the error I installed all the updates but I cannot solve the problem I do not have a problem with the previous 36906 trainer

Please delete the trainer, custom keys, debug folder where the trainer resides and all files in

C:\Users\USERNAMEHERE\AppData\Local\Temp
C:\Users\USERNAMEHERE\Cheathappens\Work
C:\Users\USERNAMEHERE\AppData\Roaming\Cheat Happens\0x90
C:\ProgramData\CheatHappens

Learn how to make your own Trainer Cleaner for the above paths here.

Reboot PC to clear excess memory, get a fresh copy of latest trainer and extract it. Run trainer as admin, read the instructions and try again. At times, a new game may be needed to resolve failed options if the data in your save file was altered. Use on a new game and test the option. If it now works, quit to main menu and load your save and try it again. May also need to run the game without the trainer first and play a bit so the save file gets updated to use possible new values. This typically will resolve the issue.

This cleaner is also part of the new Cheat Happens Trainer Manager 2.0, it is found in the settings and has an easy to use one button click feature.

And if you had a improper shutdown for any reason you may want to run the system file checker

Hello everyone, I found the solution for the 0x2 error I had about the trainer, in fact, I found it by chance, normally you have to put the trainer file in the folder where the game is installed, but when you put it in that folder, it gives the 0x2 error.
I opened a new folder in the folder where the game is installed and I put the trainer file into that folder.When I do this, I do not get the 0x2 error and the trainer works without any problems.
