Run PoE as a limited user

[Kz4ever]

I do the whole tutorial and finally it asks me for the password of the limited user, but it won't let me type it.

I do that and Poe does not start >.<

What is the possibility of being banned if Gamehelper is used without a limited user?

Could you please provide more information about your ban ?

I would be very surprised if you/your friend were banned using this method. We would see very widespread bans if this was actually detected and not your friend using some sort of detected hack or doing real money trading/sketchy stuff.

We all (3 persons) used Exile Api, and Poe Game Helper. Limited user was used as usual. Me and one my friend was banned while gaming, third was banned offline. All we have ban reason "Third party softwere". Maybe we was banned because we used 2 programs at the same time, in previous leagues we used only Exile Api.Attachment 79424

Personally, I think this is the reason. Some calls from these two programs caused a conflict and it was noticed.

Thoughts?

What other stuff i can do too to help secure myself? i already set up PoE as a limited user, does Sandboxie works? what do you guys do to protect yourselves

Is there any problem with this method or it's just my PC? I've been using it with no problem, but today my PoE_x64 didn't run.

This happens sometimes. Personally, I have it regularly, about once every couple of months. You need to create a new profile and enable the new permissions.

No, literally the only thing that matters is you running PoE as a limited user. The entire point of this is that if/when PoE attempts to run its client sided anti-cheat routine, any attempts at gaining useful information will be blocked by windows. As long as you have made no modifications to the game itself (GGPK changes, memory modifications, etc) you should be relatively safe. We know they have server sided detection as well, but that would not detect a program you're running locally... more the actions you are taking.
