Hello everyone, I've just finished downloading Apex on Steam and ran into this "r5apex.exe - Application Error (0xc0000005)" message. I've tried running compatibility tests, verified game files, and repaired AntiCheat, but to no avail. I've also made Apex an exception in Windows Firewall, and in my antivirus, but still won't work. I'm running on Win10, and all my drivers are up to date.

Hey @Shummy66,
This error is generally tied to another program or process interfering with the game.
Making sure you've added the game as an exception in both Windows Firewall and your antivirus is typically the best bet, however since that doesn't seem to have done the trick in this case it may be worth a full clean boot of your system.
That should let you try running this without any other unnecessary processes in the background to help narrow down what may be causing the issue.

We were told it would be fixed before the new season, now there is a major update and it's still not fix. Many of us have spent lots of money on this game and to have no response or help from Respawn is ridiculous. We need a formal response and a Hot-Fix update today!
