Re: The Operation Identifier is Not Valid

Hey @AraDyalan 

The 10011 error code could indicate that your Anti virus is blocking Apex Legends from launching.

If your Anti Virus is not blocking it then repairing Easy Anti cheat could to the trick.

Locate yourself to C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Apex\EasyAntiCheat
Run EasyAntiCheat_Setup and click on Repair.

Let me know if this worked.

    Hey @AraDyalan 

    Apex legends is getting flagged by Avast as Malware.
    They are aware of this issue and they are investigating this.

    However, to be able to play Apex you will have to set it as an exception for now.
    I'll leave the steps how you can set Apex as a exception in you Anti Virus.

    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.

    If you have done these steps you should be able to play. :eahigh_file:

    Hey @AraDyalan 

    You don't need to download that file from anywhere, just repair the game and launch it from the Origin client.

    Yeah same error, I went into Origin and right clicked then clicked repair and that didn't fix it.

  • i had the same problem, i tried everything and nothing worked then i did something by myself which was simple, i deleted the easy anti cheat folder from apex legends source file and then went to origin and pressed repair on apex legends and now it works fine
