Re: r5apex error "The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000094)

Hey @APOPU

The error "The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000094)" seems to be a Windows problem.
Could you please try the following possible fixes for this issue?

To resolve the 0xc0000094 error and game crashes, try these steps:
  1. Reinstall Visual C++ Redistributables: Download and install the latest versions (x64 and x86) from Microsoft's website.
  2. Update/Reinstall DirectX: Ensure DirectX is up to date using the DirectX End-User Runtime Installer.
  3. Check Event Viewer: Look for game or launcher errors under Windows Logs > Application.
  4. Reinstall Game to a New Location: Install on a different drive or folder to rule out corruption.
  5. Run Windows Updates: Ensure your system is fully updated.
  6. Run System File Checker: Open Command Prompt (Admin) and run sfc /scannow.
  7. Disable Overclocking: If overclocked, return to default settings.
  8. Clear Epic Games Cache: Delete the webcache folder in C:\Users\[YourUserName]\AppData\Local\EpicGamesLauncher\Saved and restart the launcher.



    If the issue persists after trying the above, could you please let us know: 
  • Is this issue occuring only for Apex or are other applications affected?
  • Is it occuring on Steam / EA App or Epic Games?
Thanks for the report and hope it helps!
