To exit Akros Anti-Cheat and play on other platforms or VAC-secured game servers, click the Akros icon in the system tray and select Exit Akros.
A confirmation prompt will appear asking if you are sure you want to exit Akros. Click Yes to close the application.
Note: This closes the Akros client, but the kernel-level service that starts with Windows remains active. Akros will continue blocking malicious tools, software, and kernel drivers.
