Hmm,
Okay i assume your all running 64bit OS because thats what modern systems run, have you all tried running Apex in Admin mode?
I know this is resurrecting an old thread. The problem is the Origin launcher. when it tries to launch the game it is not looking in the right directory. This usually happens after a reinstall of the launcher or a "repair" of the game. To resolve it go to the game in the launcher, choose settings, move game. An explorer window should open in the Origin game directory. Right click in the right hand pane and select New -> Folder. Name the new folder whatever you like (mine is ApexLegends), this will be the new location for the game. Select (don't open) the new folder and click "Select Folder" in the lower right of the window. The launcher should return to the main menu and begin moving and verifying the game. Depending on the speed of your drive it should only take a couple of minutes. When completed everything should work normally again. I hope this solution works for everyone with the 32-bit error.
An alternate temporary solution is to navigate to the game directory from within explorer and right-click r5apex.exe and select "create shortcut (desktop)". Using the shortcut to launch the game should work because the shortcut tells the executables in which directory to find the files, but the Origin launcher still won't launch the game properly.
