Apex freezes and will not close, have to open task manager and close the game from there on my second monitor as my main monitor goes black when I try to alt + tab. Win key + Shift + Right arrow key...

@MightyBattlePugSame problem here. 100% Load on CPU and GPU in game. Ive been able to reduce the GPU load a tad but still crashes late in game or when it feels like. CPU on the other hand has stayed at 100% load in game. Ive tried reinstalling the game, reinstalling the drivers, running in administrator, even messed with NVIDIA 3D setting and apex settings. My Apex setting are set really low because i prefer more frames but like i said i have moved them around in hopes that it would help to no avail. As @ProjektBloo said I wouldn't care as much if this wasn't the main game i played everyday.
Please send help!!!!!!

@ohwillyy I have your same OS build.. and i'm suspecting that the problem is also inside the last windows update.. menawhile i've setted the "-maxthread 3" and the CPU goes low but the games instead of shutdown the PC keeps it freezes.. same freeze that i'm having in for honor from the last windows update of the last week.. i've tried everything i know..
@Jaggho_YTI thought it was the new update as well but i uninstalled it and the problem still happened. so im kinda just lost at the moment. Hopefully the devs will get a patch out with the new update coming out on the 15th.
- @ohwillyy i've noticed something strange.. 3 weeks ago i've always played batman arkham knight, for fonor and apex legends without any problems (also with at high settings for each one) but after the season 3 update the PC started to freeze.. so the 1° thingh that i've suspected was the new season.. but at the same time there was the release of windows october update and at the same time for honor started to freeze the PC too.. from that moment i've tried everything to repare that but nothing works.. today i've started batman arkham knight with the hope that works.. but during the loading screen it crash to desktop, so i've started a game's file check and the launcher started to download 3GB of game's file missed/corrupted.. this is crazy beacause i've installed batman in August and played it for 120h with ZERO CRASH.. after the download i've started the game and it worked for 10 min before the crash.. after the crash i've got also a freezed BSOD with only the "☹️" emoticon.. so i think that the windows update of october has changed something ino game's directory or windows registry that influence this freeze/crash.. the only thingh that i've not tried for each one games is to unistall and reinstall..
- @Jaggho_YT Okay i suspected the windows update at first but then found nobody else that did as me. so I thought to uninstall it and see if that was the problem great but like i said zero results. so i moved on and started looking for other solicitations. Your probably right tho, it has to be the windows update because that's the only thing that changed for me. And then the crashes came. Apex had always ran smooth for me. I ran GTA5 to see if that might crash too because its much more demanding but that ran fine. ive just ran a couple of games of apex for and and 1.5hr with some stuttering and fully expected to crash but no crashing, last night was another story tho. 6 total crash in a span of 2hrs. Windows needs to get there * together lol
Uninstalling and reinstalling the game did nothing for me still had high load on both gpu and cpu.
