Was only able to start this Apex Legends once, played the tutorial, shut down my pc, went to sleep, the next day I tried to play Apex, this error has popped up ever since:
"The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000142). Click OK to close the application."
Right after clicking "OK" this pops up:
Untrusted system file (C:\Windows\System32\winhttp.dll)
Was never able to even get to the main screen of Apex. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling, updating the game, repairing the game, checking EasyAntiCheat for any viruses/encrypted files, nothing has worked. My PC was built Feb 2019. Pretty sure it is not a hardware issue.
These are my specs if its even related to this issue at all:

Asrock B360 Pro4 & intel core i7-8700
SSD:
Sandisk SSD Plus 240GB
Harddrive:
