cant play apex legends

This issue started about a month back where i cant seem to start my apex legends. Usually, it will be either a error 408 or anti-cheat failing to synchronize error code. I have tried deleting and reinstalling, changing my dns, restarting my internet router, updating my gpu card but none of it has worked. I have also submitted thrice to EA help but no case has been opened or has EA got back to me. Does anyone have a solution for this?

FYI, I'm on steam-pc.

Cheers.

    Hey there, have you tried adding Apex Legends and Easy Anti Cheat through your anti-virus software and or firewalls? Something is preventing that service from running it sounds like.

    Midnight9746​ hey there, have tried to manually repair with the link you kindly provided. However, i am still facing the 'code anti-cheat authentication timeout' error. i still am facing problems playing apex. Would you have any other solutions up your sleeve?

    Thank you, cheers
