You have to find the file called "videoconfig.txt"

Can be found at:
C:\Users\"Your PC name"\Saved Games\Respawn\Apex\local

Then right click on "videoconfig" and open with Notepad.
Change the value of "setting.fullscreen" "1" to "setting.fullscreen" "0" and "setting.nowindowborder" "0" to "setting.nowindowborder" "1".

Hope it helps!

    I don't want to play the game in a window, is there any way to fix this while being able to play full screen?

      Hello,

      There are ways to do that.

      Solution 1:
      C:\Users\"Your PC name"\Saved Games\Respawn\Apex\local
      Right click on "videoconfig.txt" and open with Notepad.
      Change
      "setting.fullscreen" "0" to "1"
      "setting.nowindowborder" "1" to "0"

      Solution 2:
      Don't open Origin (make sure it is gone from your taskbar), Select Apex from the start menu and launch it from there. It goes full screen.

      Hope it helps!

      To go full screen set the graphic numbers to your max screen resolution
