Error Code Anti-cheat authentication timeout.

Hi
I just updated APEX last week. Before updating APEX, I was able to play it.
And I got an error Code Anti-cheat authentication timeout.

How can I solve this issue?
I tried the solution below, but it did not solve it.

Open cmd as an administrator, and then run the following three codes one by one:

certutil -generateSSTFromWU roots.sst

certutil -addstore -f root roots.sst

I uninstalled APEX and reinstalled it, then it worked.
But after turning off PC and turning on and tried to raunch apex, then it has same error code.

    HiKajuBoy121​ 

    There are many general VPN services available, so I turned on VPN the same way as using the internet, then launched APEX and it connected successfully.

    But I have to keep using VPN while playing apex. It is annoying.

    I hope EA will recognize this issue.

    I got VPN. Then used it with APEX.

    Finally I’m able to connect apex.

    There is no fxxking this error code with VPN.

    If anyone faces this issue, I hope this will help it.

    I reset my pc(cleaned SSD and reinstalled windows), but it did not work.

    Please assign someone to this ASAP.

    This is being discussed on Steam and EA forums. EA should announce an official solution .

    That’s why you’re losing players.

    I gave up playing apex.
