Download and mouse cursor issue

Apex won't download past point "ready to play" (about half way).

Tried installing to 3 differend drive
38373627 windows restarts
Tried with ea play app and origin
cleared caches
Firewall approved
countless times deleted every file and reinstall.

I'm running out of ideas.
I've sent dxdiag with ticket from the app.
146863d140216cf6

Problem number 2.
The cause of problem number 1 is because i was trying to solve problem number 2.
I uninstalled the game and tried re-installing as a solution for mouse cursor problem
Mouse cursor freeroams to another display on dual monitor setup and closes the game instantly.

Any solution for this if I even get the game installed.

  • Hi @blombsa Can you try reinstalling in this order to see if we are able to get fully installed? Also when it stops installing are you getting a message, or does the download just go down to 0 and stop?

    1. Delete/uninstall apex and check the installation drive for any remaining files and remove them completely 
    2. Clear Origin cache
    3. Put your device in a Clean Boot 
    4. Check the following
      1. Start Origin as admin
      2. Proxy settings are disabled
      3. Turn off UAC Controls  
    5. Launch Origin and try to download the game (If possible let the download run without anything else running)

    Let us know if you continue running into issues with it getting complete. 

    Thanks!

    Hi, thank you.

    The game installed and runs.

    Back to problem number 2.
    In game menu and in actual game, mouse cursor doesn't stop on the edge of monitor 2, like it is supposed to whenever a game is open.
    Only solution so far is that I can't use 2nd monitor when playing apex. and only apex, all other ea games work normally.

    Ideas?
