Apex freeze 100% CPU Usage
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...

@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.

It's not a windows update causing these issues.
It is the Apex patch, it's a known issue and they are working on it.
However there is no ETA more than "in a future patch".
Hey guys,
Could you try the following steps?
Zeel's Troubleshooting Guide
I'm still troubleshooting this issue but there is a patch coming in the future.Download Afterburner and cap fps to 120 this has stopped it for me.
Not tried capping at other fps.
