Paranoya Radar setup for Arena Breakout: Infinite
Step-by-step launch for Paranoya. This is a web radar: nothing is drawn over the game, the raid map lives as its own page in a browser, and it is easiest to keep open on a phone, a tablet or a second monitor. There is no BIOS work here — the whole setup is authorising with your key and running the build straight from the archive.
Requirements
- Windows 10 or 11 (x64), any release build
- The game from Steam, the Arena Breakout launcher or EGS
- A second screen, phone or tablet — the map is easiest to keep there
- Administrator rights on the computer
- The game in borderless or windowed mode
System requirements
Preparation
Turn Windows protection off BEFORE downloading the build: otherwise the browser or Defender delete the archive right after it lands. Nothing else needs preparing — no BIOS, no virtualisation, no spoofer.
Remove third-party antivirus and anti-cheats Kaspersky, Avast, ESET and the like, plus FaceIT and Riot Vanguard, conflict with the loader. They must be uninstalled, not just paused.
-
Open Settings → Apps → Installed apps (or Control Panel → Programs and Features).
-
Uninstall any third-party antivirus (Kaspersky, Avast, AVG, ESET, 360, Malwarebytes, etc.). Pausing or disabling is not enough — the antivirus driver stays resident.
-
Uninstall the FaceIT AC and Riot Vanguard anti-cheats if present — they block third-party software at the kernel level.
- FaceIT is the CS2 anti-cheat, Vanguard is the Valorant one. If you don't play those games, they are safe to remove.
After removing an antivirus, restart the PC — some of its services only unload after a reboot.
Fully disable Windows Defender The #1 cause of "it won't launch". Disable it for real: manually first, then remove it from startup, reboot, and finish it off with Defender Control.
-
Step 1. Turn protection off by hand. Open Windows Security → Virus & threat protection → Manage settings and switch every toggle off:
- Real-time protection — Off.
- Cloud-delivered protection — Off.
- Automatic sample submission — Off.
- Tamper Protection — Off. Turn this one off first, otherwise the others switch themselves back on.
-
Step 2. Disable reputation-based protection. In Windows Security → App & browser control → Reputation-based protection → Settings, turn everything off (SmartScreen, potentially-unwanted-app blocking).
-
Step 3. Remove Defender from startup. Open Task Manager (Ctrl+Shift+Esc) → Startup apps tab, find Windows Security notification icon and click Disable.
-
Step 4. Restart your computer. This is mandatory — some Defender services only unload after a reboot.
-
Step 5. Finish with Defender Control. Download Defender Control (archive password: r1xon), run it as administrator and click Disable Windows Defender — the tile turns red.
- If your antivirus deletes the utility itself, protection is still active — go back to step 1. The file ships zipped on purpose so Defender can't wipe it before it's disabled.
Don't skip steps 3–4. "I turned the toggles off but it didn't help" almost always means Defender came back after restart because it was left in startup.
-
Turn off Reputation-based protection: `Settings` → `Privacy and security` → `Windows Security` → `App and browser control` → `Reputation-based protection settings` — switch everything off
-
Restart the computer afterwards and check that real-time protection did not switch itself back on — Windows often restores it
Launch
-
Open paranoya.xyz and press the Auth button in the top right corner
-
Enter the key you received after payment — it doubles as the login to your account
-
Open the Builds tab and download the current build
-
Open the downloaded archive and run the file straight from the archive — do not unpack it and do not pull the files out
-
Enter the activation key in the build window
-
In the Profile section of your account take your personal radar link and open it on a phone, a tablet or a second monitor
-
Get into a raid. The build can be started before or after the game — the order does not matter
-
After fully quitting the game or restarting the client the build has to be started again
Problems & fixes
The first launch fails with Exit code -1
The Windows vulnerable driver blocklist is in the way. Turn off Core Isolation, then open PowerShell as administrator and run:
`reg add "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\CI\Config" /v VulnerableDriverBlocklistEnable /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f`
Restart the computer and run the build again.
The map is empty: no players, no loot
First make sure you are in a raid — in the menu, the hideout and on the loading screen the map is empty by design. If a raid is empty too, the build lost the game: that happens after the client restarts. Close the build and start it again; the radar page can stay open.
The build archive disappears right after the download
That is a false positive from Defender or SmartScreen, normal for this kind of software. Turn off real-time protection and reputation-based protection, clear the threat history and download the build again. The file still has to be run from inside the archive, unpacked.
The radar link does not open on the phone
The link is personal and lives in the Profile section of your account — take it there rather than copying the page address from the desktop browser. The phone needs internet access; a VPN that filters unknown domains can block the page too.
Advanced setup — only if it still won’t launch
Disable Core Isolation Memory Integrity blocks the driver from loading. Takes a minute to switch off.
-
Open Windows Security → Device security → Core isolation details.
-
Turn off Memory Integrity and restart the PC.
Update Visual C++ and DirectX Up-to-date runtimes keep the loader and overlay from crashing at start.
-
Install Visual C++ Redistributable x64 and restart the PC.
-
Update DirectX if you haven't in a while.
Use a VPN for download and activation CIS ISPs often block the activation servers. A VPN is needed while downloading the loader, activating the key and injecting — you can turn it off before joining a match.
-
Use a full VPN (an app that routes all traffic), not a browser proxy, VLESS or extension — half the support tickets come from exactly this.
-
Turn the VPN on before downloading the loader and activating the key. If something won't load, switch country (Europe or the US usually work).
-
After a successful inject you can turn the VPN off before the match to avoid extra ping.
A VPN fixes most endless-loading and "key won't activate" problems.
FAQ
Where do I get the key after payment?
The key arrives instantly: it shows up on the order page and lands in your email, and if Telegram is linked it is duplicated in our bot. This guide opens from there as well.
Which key opens the menu in game?
None. Nothing is drawn over the game: the map and every setting live on a separate page in the browser. That is why the radar does not fight overlays and stays out of screen capture when the map is kept on a phone or a second monitor.
Is a spoofer included?
No, the build has none. The radar does not inject into the game client, but hardware that is already banned is not cured by that — a spoofer is bought separately in that case.
Can I show the map to a squadmate?
The radar has target following with a relay to a teammate: you click a player and your squadmate sees them from your position, floors included. The Profile link itself is personal — better kept to yourself.
Still stuck?
Run R1XON Checker first — it pinpoints most launch problems in 30 seconds. If it still fails, attach the checker report to your support ticket and we’ll sort it out fast.
