Fsociety
Fsociety for PUBG: setup and launch guide
This page walks you through everything needed to get Fsociety running on PUBG: checking that your Windows build is supported, switching off system protection, starting the loader in the right order and activating the overlay in game. At the end you also get fixes for the most frequent startup errors.
Read this first
- The cheat is not compatible with every system. Check your Windows build before anything else — on Windows 11 it must not exceed 26200.8037 (inclusive).
- Do not close the loader window after loading: it has to stay open until you finish playing.
- Never start the loader while PUBG is already running.
- Tip: keep this page saved. The launch order has to be repeated every single time, and the timestamp / session_invalid errors are quickest to solve with these steps at hand.
Compatibility
Supported Windows: any Windows 10 build works, and Windows 11 is fine up to build 26200.8037 (inclusive). Anything newer on Windows 11 will refuse to load the cheat.
- Press Win + R.
- Type winver and press Enter.
- Compare the build number you see with the limit above.
Before launch
These preparations are done once. Skip them and the system will simply stop the software from running.
- Open Start and go to Windows Security → Virus & threat protection → Manage settings.
- Set all four toggles to Off: Real-time protection, Tamper Protection, Cloud-delivered protection, Automatic sample submission.
- Shut down any third-party antivirus you have installed — Kaspersky, Avast, ESET, Bitdefender, Norton, McAfee, AVG and similar. Either disable it completely or uninstall it for the length of the session.
- Right-click the loader file you downloaded and pick Run as administrator, then accept the UAC prompt.
Launch order
Repeat this sequence at every session. Doing the steps out of order ends in a load error.
- Make sure PUBG is not running. The loader must never be started while the game is open.
- Start cmd with administrator rights.
- Stop the anti-cheat services one by one with the commands: sc stop faceit, then sc stop vgc, then sc stop vgk.
- Terminate the remaining processes: taskkill /F /IM FACEITClient.exe, taskkill /F /IM vgc.exe, taskkill /F /IM vgtray.exe.
- If the console reports that a service was not found, ignore it — that component simply isn't installed. What matters is that none of the listed processes are still active.
- Start the loader and press Load.
- Wait until the Loaded successfully message appears. Do not close the loader window — leave it open for the entire gaming session.
- Start PUBG and hit F5 while you are in the game menu. The overlay and ESP will switch on.
- If ESP shows nothing once a match begins, quit the game, restart the software and go through the launch order again from the first step.
Fixing the timestamp / bad_timestamp error
This message means the clock on your PC no longer matches the authorization server.
- Open Start and go to Date & time.
- Turn Set time automatically on.
- Press Sync now.
- Verify that the time zone matches the region you are actually in.
- Start the loader again.
Fixing the session_invalid error
The session has run out, or the key has already been activated on a different machine.
- Close the loader completely.
- Start it again as administrator.
- Type your key in once more.
Should the message keep appearing, ask the seller to reset the session for you.
Loader doesn't open or shuts down instantly
- Confirm that Windows Defender and every third-party antivirus are switched off for good, not merely paused for 10 minutes.
- Start the loader as administrator — otherwise the injector has no way to load its modules.
- Look up your Windows 11 build again: above 26200.8037 the cheat is unsupported, so you either wait for a developer update or roll the build back.
