I'm glad that it worked for you !

In the meantime i've seen the post from Killer employee, and i followed the guide for a complete removal of Killer Network Control - Afterwards i installed the newest version 2.0.x..

The new update seems to have fixed this issue aswell

I'm not aware if a complete removal via the tool they made is actually necessary, but you might aswell i suppose

I had to change the cpu thermal paste and I decided to format all disks and go for a fresh installation of windows 10.

Once installed and downloaded all drivers and programs, included Killer Control Center (the latest version), I played Apex without any freeze or other problems!

I suggest to follow the instructions given by Killer network employee in this thread (second page), the new version should fix everything.

I will try it, because I'm desperate.... but no way in HELL it is going to work.
That makes no sense!

Yeah, as i suspected, this did not help AT all!

ALSO! I formatted my entire computer, started from scratch with only Driver, Origin and Apex Legends.
Game still freezes. Respawn, what the actuall hell! Why are you not commenting on this issue?!
Why are you not fixing it?!

I just died in the first 3 minutes of the game, 3 games in a row because of these freeze bugs with
a newly formatted machine with only driver and the game.

Deleting the game now.

WHAT. THE. ACTUAL. F-WORD.

Okey, posting this as a tips/hint/warning to others that might be in the same position as me.

It is regarding the Killer Controll Center fix... I have NEVER EVER installed or used this app.
I also have a fresh windows install, but seems like windows update has installed this app on my behalf,
without me knowing. I brushed that fix off since i've never seen or heard of that app, but turns out, I've got it!
Trying the "Disable Advanced Stream" fix now. Looking forward to see if it helps!
Discovered that I hadd the app by mistake after opening the windows menu, and typing "k", suddenly it just popped up.

Be sure to do the same to check if you have it too, even if you have not installed it or used it, ever!
