When you encounter any bug or glitch such as the inappropriate activity detected Elden Ring error when playing the game, it is strongly recommended to reboot your game device. After rebooting your device, most of the game issues can be automatically removed.
Corruption in game files can also cause the inappropriate activity detected Elden Ring issue. Although most systems and launchers can detect such files and patch them automatically, you still need to run manual checks to the integrity of game files.
Like any other video game, Elden Ring also contains Easy Anti-Cheat. Sometimes, the EAC error can also lead to the Elden Ring inappropriate activity detected for no reason issue. In this case, you need to repair it. To do so:
A few hours ago, the highly anticipated first DLC Shadow of the Erdtree for Elden Ring was released. Players, after more than two years, can enjoy a new region, many unique enemies and exciting fights with tough bosses. The problem is that some are forced to do it alone, as they get an inappropriate activity detected error... If this is happening to you as well, read our guide, in which we describe this bothersome bug.
Elden Ring is known for its downright brutal difficulty level, which many find impossible. Regular opponents can give you a hard time and kill you with 2 or 3 attacks, let alone bosses. For this reason, the online mode is popular, as playing with other players is much easier and sometimes even more enjoyable. The problem is that with the arrival of the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC, much of the Elden Ring community cannot summon anyone or be summoned to help other players...
All due to a troublesome bug that shows information: "inappropriate activity detected". This message usually appears when connecting to online mode in the main menu or when summoning another player (or being summoned). Rest assured, this is not a cause for concern. Most likely, the latest patch for the game messed up something in the game files.
Is there any option to remedy this? Some players answer that it is enough to restart the game and try to launch it again, then the error will probably not appear. However, this is not an ideal solution and may not work in your case. Fans of the game fortunately report notoriously on various social media about the problem, which gives hope for a quick solution to the bug.
Each Elden Ring patch brings a wealth of changes to the game, which often work to nerf the most popular "cheesing" strategies and strong builds. Notably, Elden Ring's patch 1.03 nerfed Mimic Tear Ashes, which many players were using to easily defeat bosses, and patch 1.05 has now rolled around for Elden Ring and brought a whole host of major changes to the game. However, as is sometimes the case when any game releases a big update, there can be a few unintentional bugs as part of the patch dropping.
In terms of patch 1.05, along with a big change to Elden Ring's map and a quality-of-life improvement to the menu seen when resting at a Site of Grace, some players have encountered a rather strange bug that informs them that "inappropriate activity" has been detected on their account. Usually, inappropriate activity refers to when a player has been caught cheating or modding in Elden Ring, and so they are forced to play the game in offline mode to prevent them from being able to unfairly invade other players' worlds.
However, following the release of patch 1.05, many Elden Ring fans were being that inappropriate activity had been detected without them ever having downloaded cheats or mods. This led to a huge amount of posts on Reddit filled with confused Elden Ring fans hoping that they could get back to playing the game in online mode. Luckily for those players who had not cheated and still received the message, it appears this was only a minor bug related to the release of the new update.
As pointed out by a few different posts on the Elden Ring subreddit, it seems that those players who wrongly received an inappropriate activity detected message are now able to return to online play. Many who got the notification found that their game froze after a while, and they discovered that the problem had fixed itself upon reloading. Players who can't wait to return to their invasions in Elden Ring can breathe a sigh of relief to know they haven't been banned unfairly from the game's online mode.
It seems that the bug still persists for some players, though, who receive the inappropriate activity message when they attempt to log into Elden Ring. In addition to preventing some players from joining the online portion of the game, Elden Ring has faced some more controversy with fans regarding other recent changes. Namely, there was an alteration to Morgott's introduction, which had some Elden Ring fans confused due to it changing the meaning of the boss' dialogue.
Elden Ring is Steam Deck Verified, meaning it's been tested and confirmed to be fully functional on Valve's handheld device. It's pretty great on it, too: There were some initial technical hiccups, but updates took care of that, leading us to include it in our list of the best Steam Deck games as "one of those games that really hits the 'I can't believe this runs on the Steam Deck' pleasure center."
This new bug is a headache, but one that's seemingly easy to avoid: If you need to step away, get yourself to a site of grace and then exit the game. Some Elden Ring players are reporting a potentially bigger problem on Reddit, though: Attempting to start the game after the patch was installed leads to an "inappropriate activity detected" error, and an inability to go online.
This is apparently an entirely separate issue from the broken inputs problem. It's not clear how widespread the issue is, but complaints have been posted across multiple threads on Reddit and Steam. The game apparently remains playable offline, but as one redditor put it, "I really need invasions and 'try jumping' messages to fully enjoy this, especially since the DLC apparently adds tons of vertical gameplay."
FromSoft hasn't yet commented on this particular issue, but given that it seems a whole lot harder to avoid than the input bug, hopefully we'll hear something soon. I've reached out for more information on the bug and will update if I receive a reply.

If you've checked your exact Elden Ring DLC release time and are now counting the minutes until you can jump into Shadow of the Erdtree for yourself, tread carefully if you're also a Steam Deck user. The game's latest patch has an odd bug that might freeze up Valve's handheld if you leave it alone for too long.
"Note: a Steam Deck related issue has been identified and a hotfix is being worked on," the official Elden Ring Twitter account said in a tweet. "Leaving your Steam Deck inactive for more than 5 minutes may stop the game from accepting inputs. We apologize for inconvenience. The date and time of the hotfix will be announced separately."
Five minutes is, of course, an estimate. I doubt this bug is kind enough to wait exactly 301 seconds. In theory, you should be fine if you manually delay the 1.12 update, or if you make sure you don't leave the game idle for long. However, the replies to the studio's tweet are filled with reports from Steam Deck users claiming online mode is borked after the patch, with some saying they've had trouble playing online due to a login error flagging "inappropriate activity detected."
For Steam Deck users rushing through what to do before Shadow of the Erdtree, the safest route for the time being seems to be playing offline, if necessary, and very actively (or, you know, on your main PC if you have one). Elden Ring doesn't exactly have much downtime and it loads pretty quickly on Steam Deck, so that shouldn't be too hard. Here's hoping a fix comes soon.
