ERROR0x8000002 Apex Exited Due to an external tool jeopardizes integrity

Question

I really need help fixing this issue and I have no idea what else to do. Since the update, I've never been able to play the game due to the issue of Apex exited due to an external tool that jeopardizes gameplay integrity (0x8000002) I have tried to check my application to find the solution but ive tried everything and nothing works.

Things ive tried:

unininstalling daemon related stuff
reinstall and repair ea and apex
uninstall riot vanguard then run apex
chat gpt my apps to check
even transfered to steam to check if ea was the problem and still nothing

Please help because I spent a lot of money on the game and i would really like to play it again. Just ask for any information you need and i will try my best to give it

thisDROO​ The issue with just uninstalling Daemon, is that it leaves some drivers and processes running on the system itself, (so that's what Apex is detecting).You would need to fully uninstall Daemon and all of its components for Apex to work again, (you could also reinstall Windows, but that's up to you).The solution for uninstalling Daemon can be found in these threads:
