Can you get VAC for having Extreme Injector running in the background?
My question is as the title states.
I had Extreme Injector v3 running in the background after previously injecting it into a completely different game and I forgot to close it and noticed it after a CS:GO competitive match.
Will I receive a VAC ban now? (Extreme Injector didn't inject anything to "csgo.exe" it was merely running in the background while playing).
Yes you can get a vac for it as ive had once for just haveing cheat engin open after playing garys mod it is a thing!
I would say it is possible, yes. However I don't think it will VAC ban you.
I've heard of people just getting banned for simply having cheat engine/injectors in there computer, regardless of if they have it open or not.
Yes you could get banned but it didn't hook into CSGO, So I wouldn't think so
Okay, well I've had Extreme Injector on my PC for atleast 1 - 2 years now and had it open while playing CS:GO comp, 2 days ago so thats why I'm so worried right now. I heard somewhere that VAC can have a 3 month delay.
Alright, so it's safe to assume that VAC does not scan any programs running in the background? It's day 3 now since this happened and I'm not VAC banned yet. It would be rather intrusive if VAC actually scans every file but I also doubt that because then I would have been banned long ago since I had a lot of injectors, trainers, .dlls lying on my desktop.
You will probably get untrusted like me for being a dumbass on 2 accounts.
Took me a week to get the untrusted ban.
