# TAC 'Environment check not supported' error — Arena Breakout install workaround

When launching CODM through TAC, an "Environment check not supported" error appears, blocking the game from starting. The error is TAC's anti-cheat refusing to certify the emulator's runtime — usually because TAC hasn't completed its first-time environment registration with Tencent's servers.


  The error appears at launch, before the splash screen.
  Reinstalling CODM doesn't fix it.
  Reinstalling TAC doesn't fix it.
  The error wording is generic — no actionable guidance.


Per leonmaxitv1: "best to ask for environment check not supported is to go to the official TAC discord since they can help better with that... when you have installed Arena Breakout we can help."
