Integrity Error: 0x8000001

Hello EA Team,

A friend of mine has been unable to launch Apex Legends since the latest update. We’ve tried multiple troubleshooting steps, but it appears there may be a bug related to the recent DX11, DX12 changes.

Here’s what we’ve done so far:

  • Reinstalled Apex on Steam multiple times.
  • Completely wiped all game files using Revo Uninstaller, ensuring no traces remained (including the Respawn folder).
  • Performed a full Windows reinstallation, installing only essential software afterward: Nvidia drivers, Nvidia App, Discord, Steam, and Google Chrome.

Despite all troubleshooting efforts, the game still won't launch. Upon clicking 'Play' on Steam, the anti-cheat starts but closes after a few seconds and the game doesn't launch at all.

PC Specs are:

  • OS: Windows 11 Pro
  • CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600H
  • Rams: 16GB
  • Graphic Card: Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050
  • Laptop Brand: Lenovo 82K2

I would appreciate any help regarding this!

  • what worked for me was to install a software called daemon tools, people were saying when they deleted it their game worked, so i tried installing it and deleting it after. Once i did that i rebooted my pc and apex worked just fine

    Are you suggesting that simply installing and then immediately uninstalling the software will resolve the Apex Legends integrity error I’m currently experiencing?
