Re: r5apex.exe file missing

Hey all!

They are aware of the issue about the false positives.

Till they fix this issue, i'll leave here the steps how to add Apex as a Exception.

If this file is set in quarantine, flag it as false positive.

Avast:

  1. Open the Avast user interface
  2. go to Settings
  3. Click on General
  4. Find the tab Exclusions
  5. Add: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Apex\r5apex.exe" here.
    This should most of the time be the location Apex is installed.
  6. Press "Ok" and Repair Apex Legends.

AVG:

  1. Open de AVG user interface
  2. Click  Menu and go to Settings.
  3. Locate yourself to General then click Exceptions.
  4. Now click Add Exception and paste here:
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Apex\r5apex.exe"
  5. Now click Add Exception and now Repair Apex Legends.
