Apex Badware problem (Integrity error 0x8000002)

Everyone is saying uninstall Daemon Tools but I don't even have that app downloaded. My task manager is literally running nothing. I clicked "repair" and "app recovery" on the EA app and ran a clean boot but that also didn't work. I hate Apex updates. Someone please save my sanity. EA Help won't let me chat to an admin for some strange reason.

  • 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!

    You get that it's not a practical solution to have people disable every startup application, right? Especially when it's right after a game update and never flagged a given system previously?

    I recently wanted to try apex legends again but I've been given the 'Integrity error 0x8000002'

    I have closed out of everything I possibly can, the only software running on my PC is EA and essential software that if closed would result in windows being unusable or shutdown.

    Any help to solve this situation would be greatly appreciated.

     

    Thankyou
