Apex Legends PC crashes mid-game – Event Viewer error 0xC0000022

Hi everyone, I’m having a persistent issue with Apex Legends on PC, and I’m running out of ideas.
After playing for some time (usually mid game), my PC suddenly crashes. There’s no gradual FPS drop or overheating warning, it just crashes unexpectedly. What’s confusing is that my PC handles much heavier games that use a lot of GPU power and VRAM without any issues. Outside of Apex, my system works perfectly fine.
I checked Event Viewer and I consistently get this error when the crash happens:
Session "dc3a3596-71e1-45a3-b2ea-39ad5322fe51" failed to start with the following error: 0xC0000022
No crashes in other demanding games. Temperatures and performance seem normal. The issue happens only with Apex Legends
