Re: New Update crashes without launching (not a directx12 option issue)

I have exactly the same problem.

These are the steps I have taken besides re-installing and verifying Apex on EA, Steam and Epic multiple times. 

Network Reset

Reset network settings to default.

Driver Updates:

Ensured all drivers, especially for network adapters and graphics cards, are up to date.

Disable Fast Start up:

Disabled fast start up in Windows.

DCOM Permissions:

Checked and fixed DCOM permissions manually. 

System File Check and DISM:

sfc /scannow

to check and repair system files.

Used DISM commands to check and repair the system image.

Safe Mode with Networking:

Tested the system in Safe Mode with Networking to isolate the problem.

Visual C++ Redistributables and DirectX:

Reinstalled all versions of Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributables and ensured DirectX was up to date.

This morning I factory reset my computer and re-installed Apex on the EA app and still got the same problem.
