BattlEye and your account
BattlEye protects Rainbow Six from apps that get inside the game. Everything above is an official setting unrelated to it; avoid any tool that edits game files.
Questions gamers ask
No, as long as they only change official game and Windows settings. BattlEye targets apps that get inside the game or edit its files.
