Posted this in the actual Apex thread, but figured it would get more exposure as its own thread.

Need some help getting the game to load.

Every time I try to play now, I get an error from Easy Anti Cheat telling me there an untrusted system file. The screen pops up and looks like it's loading, nothing happens, I then get the error and am brought back to the Origin client.

I've tried the cmd prompt solution with netsock reset command. (ran as system admin)

I've tried updating my video drivers

I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling my video drivers

I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the game

I've tried repairing the game from the origin client

Every "solution" I find online 100% doesn't work.

The only other solution I've seen that I haven't tried is a full reinstall of windows, which I'd rather not do.

Anyone have this issue before? Any suggestions?

Sounds like you need to burn it to the ground.

Fresh W10 install and start over?

I guess the obvious question is have you cheated in any game or downloaded any sketchy mods or anything that may be tipping off the system?

I had the same issue with COD: MW and I realized I had WeMod running in the background. Check your apps running in the background.

Thanks for the tips!

Apparently I had my windows updates set to "off".

Updated windows, and all is well

Hmm makes me wonder if I Pirate windows for my next build if I’ll run into the same issue without a fix because I don’t think you can update a Pirated version
