The “inappropriate activity detected” error occurs when players attempt to summon another player in the Elden Ring. Unfortunately, this means that the best solution for now is to avoid using summons altogether. Players have reported getting kicked from the game and experiencing issues with multiplayer features due to this error.
Let’s find out what the error actually is and how to fix it.
What is the ‘Inappropriate Activity Detected’?
Apparently, the issue might be connected to mods. If another player has mods enabled or has used them, and you’re trying to summon them, Elden Ring might recognize this as cheating.
Like any game, Elden Ring can have technical glitches. Sometimes, these anomalies trigger inappropriate activity and detect an error.
How to Fix the ‘Inappropriate Activity Detected’ Error?
Follow the steps mentioned below to fix the issue:
- Avoid Summons: As mentioned earlier, the error seems to occur mainly when using or attempting to use summons. For now, consider playing without summons until a fix is provided.
- Repair Easy Anti-Cheat (EAC): If you’re playing on a PC, try repairing the EAC engine. Here’s how:
- Open File Explorer.
- Navigate to
C:\Users\YourUsername\AppData\Local\EasyAntiCheat. - Locate the
EasyAntiCheat_Setupfile and double-click it. - Choose Elden Ring and select the repair service option.
- If that doesn’t work, you can try uninstalling the anti-cheat and installing it again.
- Change Game Language Settings: Another workaround is to change your game’s language settings. Go to the Settings option in your Start tab, find Time and Language, and select the Language option. Look for the Administrative Language Settings menu to choose the Change System Locale option.
