Freezing w/o error codes, game may freeze then close or require manual restart
I've been having issues on and off with Apex crashing for a little over a year now on my pc. I'll list the specs below. I can't get through a game without it "freezing". This was happening before the update. I won't get an error code. Instead, what will happen is the game will freeze for a few moments, turn white, spinning/thinking wheel then a pop up shows up asking if I want to close down apex or wait for it respond. Usually, it'll just close on its own if I don't click close. Again, no error codes and it will allow me to rejoin the game.
I have all the latest drivers for my processor, video card, windows updates and any other program that I can think of. I was having over heating issues before but I have since solved those issues. I have almost ALL of my video settings on LOW, anti alliasing off, vsync off and so on.
For fun I put on borderlands 3 today with all the settings CRANKED up as high as possible. The game didn't even stutter. Frames were lower due to all the details being low but it never froze or anything like that. Meanwhile I can't even play apex on LOW settings. HELP!
I've also performed a clean boot of my system. I've uninstalled steam/origin/apex multiple times. I've set anti cheat to LOW priority, I've done everything listed on the help pages of this website so I'm desperate for help. I read that there is a place in documents that stores crashes for apex but I can't find it. I'd love to see if there's anything there.
