Re: cant install and repair apex legend after window update

I was having the exact same issue. I even uninstall the game completely and try to download again. and nothing was working until I fixed a pending Framework install that I had in my windows update. I wasted a whole day troubleshooting this.

Make sure you have this updated

Cumulative Update for .NET Framework 3.5 and 4.8 for Windows 10, version 1903
