Go to C:\YourUserName\Saved Games\Respawn\Apex
Rename profile folder to folder.bak
Rename local folder to local.bak
it forces the game to recreate those folders.
The game should work after that.
Same issue here since the latest update. Game launches, shows the intro video/Respawn logo, then crashes to desktop with absolutely no error message. Worked fine before this update.
System specs:
CPU: Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Laptop
RAM: 32GB
Motherboard: MSI MS-1841 (BIOS/firmware fully updated)
OS: Windows 11, fully up to date
Secure Boot: Enabled
VT-x / VT-d: Enabled in BIOS
Troubleshooting already done, no success:
- Manual EAC repair (EasyAntiCheat_EOS_Setup)
- Verified/repaired game files via both EA App and Steam
- Full uninstall + clean reinstall (tried both EA App and Steam)
- Cleared EasyAntiCheat_EOS registry keys
- Full Windows reinstall (done previously for a similar issue on this same PC)
- Renamed profile and local folders in Saved Games\Respawn\Apex to force recreation
- Updated BIOS/firmware
- Toggled Core Isolation/Memory Integrity on and off
- Disabled all overlays (Discord, Steam, MSI)
- No crash dump, no Windows Error Reporting entry, nothing in Event Viewer or Reliability Monitor — the process just closes silently
- No other game on this PC has this issue
This looks like a widespread issue introduced by the latest patch, not an isolated hardware problem — several other threads posted today describe the exact same symptoms. Please look into this, thanks.
delete profile.cfg and restart game :)
Holy...........This actually fixed my game. I was going insane trying to do the most to fix this issue
