So after latest patch/update at least Avast and AVG seem to think Apex is virus? Something to worry about or just skip it?
Hi all.
This does appear to be a false positive of course -they do happen from time to time- but we'll investigate what's happening here.
Thanks for the posts.
I know I can make it as exception but question is what the * does that mean. Never before has any antivirus done this and now suddenly after patch at least 2 different programs are reporting this as malware.

Hi, I think I solved the issue (atleast for me)
Launch Avast and go to settings in the right corner and then exceptions. There you will have the option too add an exception. Copy and paste this file in the blank space, "C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Apex\R5Apex.exe" and add it as an "exception-file" and repair the game in Origin. Worked for me.
sorry for poop English
Don't tell me i'm the only one?
Tried to repair the game and avast still blocks me out, removing the exe file.
Edit: i did report it as false positive but still curious on why does avast think its malware.
what do you mean by copy and paste the empty bar you cant copy and paste a empty bar
Makes you question what EA did for it to be suddenly flagged after working no-problem for months...
Can agree with this - temporarily fixes this. Worth keeping an eye though, if EA release another update soon, we can remove the exclusion list - definitely wanna keep our rigs protected, never know when these crafty malwares try to get on ....
Just wait for next update/patch
i start to go in local Disk (D🙂 then program files (x86) then Apex and the weird thing is i dont have the r5apex.exe and i can't play apex without it thats what is saying can you help me get it back somehow?
