Apex Legends will not turn on after the Easy Anti Cheat splash screen

Hi, I have recently redownloaded apex Legends, howver everytime I try to launch it I get to the easy anti-cheat splash screen where it does not launch only seeming to crash.

Here is a link to a video where I found someone else had the exact same issue

Note I have run the program as an administrator and used both steam and EA launchers.

    Are you using a Linux based device?

    Open the EA launcher and then try repairing the EA game file. This works sometimes.

    Please let me know if this worked for you or not

    Im using windows, and the launcher being EA I have also used steam and have tried repairing the files multiple times to no change

    OK, lets try some ruling out of things.

    Try turning off all non essential programs that may be running in the background. There are some programs that the anti cheat does not like and can cause issues.  Make sure your antivir/Firewall is not messing with Apex and or EA add them to the excepted list.
