Apex legends keeps crashing on startup, please help

I’ve been dealing with this for 2 days now, I launch the game, compiled shaders, get into the lobby, the news tab pops up, the game freezes and then I get a “Apex legends is not responding” screen. OR it just closes by itself (no error message) and back to steam I go. Every. Single. Time.

I’ve spent the last 2 days trying to fix this so I’ve reinstalled apex, updated drivers and EVEN back rolled the drivers version to the version chatgpt told me was best compatible with my gpu (gtx 1650), verified files, forced dx11 and so much more launch options that did not work and checking error logs trying to figure it out.

Everything was fine before the last patch on the 29th. Now I can’t even play the game.

Trying to find out if this is a known issue or anyone knows how to fix it, I need help please. Otherwise do I just need to wait until the next update/patch to see if it works?
