Re: Apex legends not uninstalling

Did you use the un-installer from appwiz.cpl to uninstall the game/origin, or did you just manually remove the files?

If you did the latter, Origin might have re-downloaded the game.

This could also be a simple issue where the register editor have some keys left from the old installation, which fools the PC to think the application is still installed.

Also, don't forget to check your recycle bin. When you manually delete a file or a folder, it's not removed from your hard drive, just moved to another location. To remove it "completly", you'll have to open recycle bin and remove it from there.

    Hey @Tellfort

    If you're comfortable you can try running a program like CCleaner to see if that helps to remove the Apex Legends files.
