Apex Badware Detected

Never had a problem running the game until after the update. tried doing a clean startup per EA recommendation, no success. Only software i have on my computer that would be even remotely considered was Ghub which i uninstalled and still not working. I don't use daemon tools, is there a fix?

    Sometimes deleting dameon tools lite isn't enough because there can be leftover files that are left on your system therefore, this is a guaranteed solution to this problem

    After extensive troubleshooting, a solution was identified for resolving the "Apex Badware Error" (0x8000002), which prevents Apex Legends from launching or functioning correctly. This issue persists even after rebooting, uninstalling programs, or attempting client repairs. The following method provides a reliable fix for this problem: 1. Download and Install Revo Uninstaller. Revo Uninstaller is a powerful tool that helps remove applications completely from your system, including any hidden or leftover files that might cause issues. It ensures that no trace of the application remains. 2. Reinstall Daemon Tools Lite. Although not ideal, reinstalling Daemon Tools Lite is necessary for this method. This step will allow Revo Uninstaller to properly detect and remove all associated files and settings. 3. Open Revo Uninstaller. Launch Revo Uninstaller if it’s not already open. 4. Select Daemon Tools Lite. In Revo Uninstaller, locate Daemon Tools Lite in the list of installed programs and select it. 5. Scan for Leftover Files (Advanced Scan). When prompted, choose the "Advanced" scan option. This will ensure that Revo Uninstaller scans for all leftover files, including those hidden or stored in system folders. 6. Select All Files and Delete. Once the scan is complete, ensure all detected files, folders, and registry entries are selected, then click "Delete." You will be prompted to confirm the deletion twice. Be sure to delete everything related to Daemon Tools. 7. Restart Your Computer. After the deletion process is complete, restart your computer to ensure that all changes take effect. 8. Launch Apex. Once your computer restarts, log in with your credentials and open Apex Legends. It should now launch and run properly!
