EasyAntiCheat is currently not working in Windows 11. Tried it with many different games. Sadly only way to get them working is revert to windows 10, no game reinstall required, we just have to wait for the devs to get to the issue.

Wish that worked for me in Windows 11, but controlled folder access wasn't enabled. I tried turning it on and adding EAC and Apex as Allowed App but that didn't work either. Same launch but no launch issue as you.

Win 11

i9 12900 KF

RTX 3080

32gb DDR 5 6000mhz

Kingston 2tb PCIe4x4/NVMe, SSD

I guess Apex is 'old' by today's standards... Next! >>>>

@NWeSource An update on Thursday has made this issue crop up again, but it's not tied to OS -- people reporting it on W7/8/10/11. There's a pinned post on this forum that's tracking it but still no resolutions from EA.

I have also ran into this issue. Possibly from the most recent update. I tried contacting the EA HELP group but no one was able to help. I have done everything under the sun to solve this - nothing works.

Thanks! So STEAM solved the problem for me oddly enough... neither Origin or the EA App, clean installs on a brand new computer with Windows 11, worked... but uninstalling Apex and then a clean / first install of Steam and then Apex Legends through Steam did work for me with no additional tweaks.
