What to Do If Your Cheat Stops Working — Complete Troubleshooting Guide (2025)
Using a cheat that suddenly stops working can be frustrating, especially in the middle of a gaming session or just after a major update. Whether you’re using an aimbot, wallhack, radar tool, or unlock all, this guide will help you understand why cheats stop working — and what you can do to fix it.
At CrazyCapyStore.com, we always try to provide stable and regularly updated tools. But even the best software can break under certain conditions. Here’s what you need to know.
⚠️ Why Cheats Stop Working
There are several reasons your cheat might stop working. The most common include:
🎮 1. Game Update
Game developers frequently push patches that change internal structures, memory offsets, and anti-cheat behavior. After such updates, most cheats become temporarily incompatible.
Example:
Call of Duty releases a new Warzone patch → internal memory layout changes → cheat fails to inject or run properly.
🔐 2. Anti-Cheat Update (Ricochet / Easy Anti-Cheat / BattleEye)
If an anti-cheat gets updated or more aggressive, it may:
- Block injections
- Detect known patterns
- Break overlays
- Crash your cheat loader
⏳ 3. Subscription Expired
Some cheats run behind a loader that checks your license or subscription status. If your sub expired or wasn’t activated correctly, the cheat may not start.
💻 4. System/Software Conflict
- Windows Defender or antivirus removed part of the cheat
- You’re missing a driver dependency (VC Redist, .NET, etc.)
- You’re running on unsupported Windows build
- Admin rights not granted to loader
📡 5. Server-side Downtime
For cloud-authenticated cheats, downtime on the provider’s side can make the cheat loader stuck at “connecting”, “auth failed”, or “waiting for update”.
🧪 What You Can Try Yourself Before Contacting Support
Before opening a ticket, try these self-fixes. They solve 80% of reported issues:
✅ 1. Restart your PC
Sometimes your memory gets locked or corrupted from previous sessions. Restarting resets that.
✅ 2. Disable antivirus / Windows Defender
Temporarily disable any antivirus and Defender, especially during extraction and injection.
✅ 3. Run as administrator
Right-click → “Run as admin” on both the loader and the game. This fixes permission issues.
✅ 4. Check your subscription
Log into the client or loader panel and verify your subscription is still active.
✅ 5. Try after restarting the game + loader
Close both the game and loader completely, then relaunch them in the correct order. Some cheats require the game to be open before starting the loader, others the opposite.
✅ 6. Check the cheat provider’s status page or Discord
Many cheat providers post real-time status updates or alerts when a cheat is down for maintenance or updates.
✅ 7. Re-download the loader / latest version
Make sure you’re using the latest version of the loader. Old versions may be blocked or outdated.
✅ 8. Change injection method (if applicable)
Some loaders support multiple injection types (e.g., manual map, kernel, etc.). Try switching if your default fails.
📬 When to Contact Support
If you’ve tried everything above and the cheat still isn’t working, then it’s time to reach out to support.
📩 What to include in your message:
- Game name (e.g., BO6, Rust, Warzone)
- Type of cheat (Internal/External, Radar, Unlock All, etc.)
- What’s happening (e.g., “loader closes”, “game crashes”, “no menu appears”)
- When it started (e.g., after update, after reboot)
- Screenshot or short screen recording (if possible)
- Confirm you’ve already tried the basic steps
This helps us diagnose the issue faster and give you a solution or ETA for the fix.
💬 What NOT to do
- Don’t spam the support team with “FIX IT!!!”
- Don’t open multiple tickets for the same issue
- Don’t assume it’s a scam — 95% of the time, it’s just an update delay
- Don’t try free “fixers” or .dlls from YouTube — they’re usually malware
