Stuck on infinite loading screen!
For the past several weeks, I've been grappling with a persistent issue that has prevented me from even accessing the main menu. As soon as I launch the game and the intro videos finish playing, I find myself trapped in an endless loading screen. I've exhausted nearly every troubleshooting step possible: I've made sure that I have all the necessary VCRedists and Runtimes, launching the game as an administrator, trying compatibility mode, disabling full-screen optimizations, updating every driver (I mean every single one), keeping my Windows up to date, and uninstalling/reinstalling the game multiple times on various platforms including Steam, EA Launcher, and Origin. Unfortunately, despite all of that, I've reached a point where I'm out of ideas, and none of the solutions I've come across in similar threads have done anything.
My PC is currently on Widows 11, Version 23H2, OS Build 22631.2338 and my NVIDIA Driver Version is 537.42 (Game Ready Drivers)
The attached images show all the Runtime, Visual C++ and NetSDK versions i have.
Well apperantly the windows firewall automatically made an inbound and outbound rule to block Apex by itself which wasn't showing up in the rules, it probably had some weird name. Once i reset the windows firewall back to default it started working again
