I had this same issue. Deleting Battleye and verifying game cache did not correct the issue, either. The only way I've fixed it is to switch to whatever branch I'm not on at the time (Stable or Experimental) and then switch back.

@Sanguine
I have tried that multiple times. Still gives me the same issue.

Had the same issue. The problem was caused by my antivirus/internet security.
I stopped the antivirus/internet security, started the game and BattlEye was installed corectly, after that I could restart my antivirus again. After that it worked like before. (No need to repeat it on every start)

Hope this helps.

Hello Edwin,

For further assistance regarding this issue with BattlEye, I would recommend that you contact BE's support directly: http://www.battleye.com/support/
