Integrity Error 0x8000001

Sorry if this is the wrong place, but EA told me to post in here to see if anyone had a fix.  Not sure why their support will not help.  Starting last season, when I try to play Apex, it starts fine and in about 5 minutes I get this error:

Integrity Error 0X8000001.

The game starts locking and back to playing locking etc.  Almost like lag but it is not my WIFI.  I can play any other game, just happening in Apex.  I have check GPU drivers, windows update, steam, I have tried everything.

When it happens I have to exit game and my whole pc will not stop and go just like the game unless I reboot or run diagnostics to fix.

Very very frustrated as I am an OG player, and used to be a Caustic main, and cannot try his new rework.

Any help would be appreciated!

    Okay I had this issue and long story short it’s windows 11 bypass IO conflicting with the anti cheat which is kernel level. I had to buy a whole new gen 3 ssd which didn’t support bypass IO, use register edit to disable bypass on my windows C:// and install apex on the gen 3 to stop the issues. Take my advice with grains of salt but I was desperate and do everything I could and it worked. I didn’t approach the issue smart so I can’t tell you what exactly did it for me.

    It only started happening for me once I built my new PC this summer and upgraded to new windows.  I’m not sure if your problem is mine, just wanted to share my solution to the same error code.
