Apex - Easy Anti-Cheat CTD

Yes, I have tried everything. 

After installing the patch today the issue has not gotten any better.

Currently, If I reboot my PC, start Origins as Administrator, and delete the EasyAntiCheat.sys file in C:\ProgramFiles(x86) then I can play Apex Legends for about 2 to 3 games before the application closes down, almost instantly without any kind of error message.

At this point, Origins thinks Apex is running so I cannot launch the game again, not even if I log out of my PC or restart Origins. There are no applications running either which seem related to Apex or Easy Anti-cheat. I must repeat the steps above to get the game working again. I have tired just deleting the .sys file I mentioned, however, the file is in use and it will not let me. Something is locking that file.

I have tried re-installing Origins, repairing Apex Legends, updating my GPU, lowering my GPU settings, booting to safe mode with networking, disabling my AV and adding .exe exceptions,  and all of the steps listed in that document you have linked. The only step I could not follow was the one to repair the Easy Anti-Cheat service due to an internal 500 server error on the link it points to.

I work is IT and software development. I hope I am wrong, but this appears to be an issue EA/Respawn need to patch. It could be related to my NVIDIA drivers, but more than likely there is an issue with Easy Anti-cheat, probably because Windows keeps updatijng its OS and Easy Anti-cheat can't keep up. I've read elsewhere they've been having a hard time keeping pace.

EDIT:

I have just bought jump force, which also uses Easy Anti-Cheat, and I'm having the EXACT same issue. I cannot get in touch with Easy Anti-Cheat support because their support portal is broken. Can anyone get me in touch with them?
