Well its already said and done, and i previously did everything you just stated with no fix. You also previously stated what you said in your comment at the beginning of this thread and that didnt fix anything, so restating isn't much help.
I already commented that i didnt have any issues afterwards, so i see no point in coming in telling us not to do it when i clearly already did.
We really just need a respawn dev to communicate whats happening with the error and if it is being investigated/recreated on their end and if it may be getting resolved soon, or if its not related to apex and it is a windows issue.
it didn’t brick my pc and i didnt have any errors afterwards using sfc/scannow or using Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth, and Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth
i understand the severity of modifying files in the windows folder, however windows has built in protections to prevent certain files from being removed(unless you modify privileges and replace trusted installer with administrator)
Not everything located in the system 32 folder is integral to the windows operating system even though much of it is. Which is why it was specified to only do the system 32 folder and not any subfolders, as well as the words MrRandomAlex used “carefully”.
if a dev was communicating with their steps to resolve the issue, i wouldnt be trying everything i could to remediate the problem. However its been over a month, that I've personally, as well as others have been dealing with the issue with no communication from EA support or respawn devs on ways to fix the issue!
i have everything installed on separate drives and backed up my windows beforehand incase i somehow wound up messing something up. I just didnt want to go back through the process of reinstalling windows when i already did 5 months ago which is why i was initially hesitant but i’m just tired of the crashes happening and its only apex thats having this issue. (and as i previously stated, other EAC games)
I Had corrupt system files in my case the only way to restore them was to delete them and reinstall the correct ones,
Deleting system 32 files will not "brick" any system unless you delete files being actively used.
This problem may have many iterations but for me that's what fixed it,
I ended up looking into this error code 0xc000007b which was occurring when I tried to open unity
Fixing that error code subsequently fixed this one as well 0xc0000005.
Valorant was the same story same exact error - 0xc000007b
Meaning I had 32 bit system files installed rather than 64
Specifically these 2
msvcr120.dll
and
msvcp120.dll
Downloading the 64 bits of these and adding them to the system 32 folder resolved my issues -> 0xc000007b
Nothing wrong with deleting system files btw windows has plenty of features in place to stop you from bricking a system.
If it were for IT guys saying to not touch system files you would need to reinstall windows to fix simple problems every time

Solution that resolved the lsass.exe/r5apex.exe errors!
Press Start then search PowerShell
Right click it then select Run as administrator
Copy and paste the command below then press Enterreg add HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa /v RunAsPPL /t REG_DWORD /d 2 /f;reg add HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa /v RunAsPPLBoot /t REG_DWORD /d 2 /f;
After some more digging around online, I found a microsoft answers forum about someone having issues with lsa protection, and using the powershell command that was given,
I did not get the lsass.exe application error when opening the game and after playing for the normal amount of time i would run into the crash, it has yet to happen, so I believe this has resolved the issue!
Also here is a video explaining the same solution, but doing it manually instead of using a powershell script (found it previously but wasnt sure if it was applicable to windows 10, but after looking around online, it is!)
@MrRandomAlex while I know you said your solution had fixed the issue for you, just wanted @ you to explain what I found/used.

Hey folks,
