Apex Legends Steam — Javelin AntiCheat error [4]
Hello everyone,
I cannot launch Apex Legends on Steam. After the EA Javelin AntiCheat splash screen, I receive Anti-Cheat error [4].
System information
* Windows 11 Pro 23H2, OS build 22631.6199
* Platform: Steam PC
Event Viewer errors
* Failed retrieving service path.
* The game r5apex_dx12.exe exited unexpectedly, exit code: 0x40010004
* Source: EA Javelin Anticheat, Event ID 1000
Troubleshooting already attempted
* Verified Apex Legends game files through Steam
* Reinstalled the EA app and cleared its cache
* Ran Windows system file checks
* Reset the network stack
* Tested with empty Steam launch options
* Downloaded a fresh EAAntiCheat.Installer.exe from the official EA CDN and ran it as administrator, but Apex Legends was missing from the game selection list
The issue persists. Has anyone experienced the same problem or found a confirmed fix? I would appreciate help identifying why Javelin cannot retrieve the service path.
Thank you.
