Loading and compiling shaders every launch

Question

Hi, so basically every time I launch my game it does "loading and compiling shaders". So far I've tried the following to fix this with no results:

1) turning on and off shader cache in NVIDIA settings;

2) downloading the newest and older drivers for the GPU (using the clean delete of the previous ones);

3) checked the integrity of game files on steam, they were all good;

4) reinstalled the game once, not a fan though, didn't help anyway.

Same here, I tried everything until now.

I tried the shader on/off fix:

I tried the verify integrity fix:

go to Steam
Oen Apex Properties
Go to Local Files
Verify Integrity of Game Files for Apex
- Result: still processing and compiling shaders but now I have more shaders to compile (previousle ~6.800 and now it's ~10.000)

I tried running Apex with DX12:

Go to C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Steam\\steamapps\\common\\Apex Legends\
Open r5apex_dx12.exe
(or add to the launch options: -eac_launcher_settings SettingsDX12.json)
- Result: still processing and compiling 10.000 shaders

I can't seem to find a way to tell Apex to just cache the compiled shaders..!
