[PC/Steam] Game settings reset to default every time I launch the game
Platform: PC / Steam OS: Windows 11 Issue Date: Since September 15, 2026 Update Every time I launch Apex Legends, all my game settings reset to default. This includes: - Mouse sensitivity - Key bindings - Graphics settings - Audio settings - All other customized settings The issue started immediately after the September 15 update. I change the settings → Exit the game → Relaunch the game → Settings are reset again. This did not happen before the update. Please help fix this issue.

Settings reset to default every time game launches / 每次啟動遊戲設定都會被重置
[English] After the latest update, all my in-game settings (graphics, audio, sensitivity, keybinds, etc.) reset to default every time I launch Apex Legends. I have already tried all common troubleshooting steps without success: 1. Unchecked 'Read-Only' attribute for the Saved Games/Respawn/Apex folder. 2. Disabled Windows Controlled Folder Access and antivirus protections. 3. Disabled cloud sync and reset/recreated the local Apex settings folder. 4. Created an autoexec.cfg file to force load settings. Please help look into this issue. Thank you! -------------------------------------------------- [中文] 最新版本更新後，每次重新啟動《Apex 英雄》都會導致所有遊戲設定（畫質、音效、靈敏度、按鍵綁定等）自動重置回預設值。 已經嘗試過以下排查方式均無法解決： 1. 取消 Saved Games/Respawn/Apex 資料夾的「唯讀」屬性。 2. 關閉 Windows 受控資料夾存取權與防毒軟體阻擋。 3. 關閉雲端存檔同步並刪除/重新生成本地 Apex 設定檔資料夾。 4. 設定 autoexec.cfg 強制覆蓋。 希望能協助排查與修復，謝謝！
Update from the Anti Cheat Team - 09/18/2026
Competitive Integrity Update — Account Sharing We’ve taken action against numerous players who were found to be sharing their accounts across multiple devices to gain an unfair advantage on the Apex Predator leaderboard. Following reports from the community of Predator players maintaining unusually long, continuous Ranked play sessions, our Anti-Cheat team reviewed login activity and device data associated with high-ranked accounts. This investigation identified accounts being accessed from multiple distinct devices in a manner consistent with account sharing, specifically targeting console users. As a result, we have handed 258 Predator players 60-day suspensions across PlayStation and Xbox. Enforcement Breakdown PlayStation — 115 players 92 players were found to be frequently sharing their accounts 2 players were found to be sharing their accounts across 5+ devices 21 players frequently shared & shared with 5+devices Xbox — 143 players 124 players were found to be frequently sharing their accounts 2 players were found to be sharing their accounts across 5+ devices 17 players frequently shared & shared with 5+devices Account sharing is prohibited under our Terms of Service and undermines the integrity of Ranked play. Accounts found to be participating in account sharing will be suspended, and all associated Ranked points will be removed. We’ll continue monitoring Ranked play and taking action against accounts that attempt to gain an unfair advantage through account sharing or other forms of abuse. Ranked integrity matters, and the Predator leaderboard should reflect the players who actually earned their position. Bot Royale False Ban Reports We’ve also seen reports from the community claiming that recent enforcement actions were the result of players being incorrectly banned while playing Bot Royale. We reviewed these reports, including the accounts brought forward by the community, and conducted additional validation of the associated enforcement. Our review confirmed that the bans were valid and that these accounts were correctly actioned. We take reports of potential false bans seriously and will continue to review credible cases brought to our attention.
Frequent crashes after the update 0x887A0006
The crashes started occurring in Season 29. They were temporarily resolved by adding launch options until the first half of Season 30. However, after the update in the second half of Season 30, the crashes started happening again. At that time, I was using the following launch options: +staticprop_color_use_bindless 0 +staticprop_depth_use_bindless 0 +r_drawworld_depth_bindless 0 I suspect that this issue may be related to the GPU, so I tested other benchmarks and games, but I did not encounter any problems. Since this error only occurs in Apex Legends, I don't think there is an issue with the GPU itself. I have already tried the following troubleshooting steps, but none of them resolved the issue: ・ Reinstalled Apex Legends and verified the integrity of the game files ・ Removed all launch options and command-line arguments ・ Updated and downgraded the GPU drivers ・ Performed a clean driver installation using DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) ・ Underclocked the GPU ・ Cleared the shader/cache files ・ Upgraded from Windows 10 to Windows 11 ・ Reconnected the GPU power cables commandline: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Apex Legends\r5apex_dx12.exe" -steam +staticprop_color_use_bindless 0 +staticprop_depth_use_bindless 0 +r_drawworld_depth_bindless 0 +rhi.dx12.EnableGPUUploadHeaps 0 +fps_max 189 -refresh 240 -novid -preload -game R2 title: Fatal Error - Engine Error error: [DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED] : 0x887A0006 - DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG The application's device failed due to badly formed commands sent by the application.

Since the start of this season I get constant code:tap errors when queuing for ranked. Only happens in ranked mode. Started day 1 of this season. I've updated all drivers, repaired game files, uninstalled/reinstalled, tried different servers, closed all other apps etc. Nothing fixes it. I never got this error before season 30, now i can play one or two games then I get the bug multiple games in a row until it finally lets me into a match. I'm constantly missing teammates, so clearly it is happening to other players too
Missing content
I have been a consistent apex customer since season 2, and I still support and believe in the game hence I participate in events / buy skins. Nevertheless I purchased ULTIMATE+ for my account through the Microsoft store and was not credited my rewards for connecting. Please lmk in a bit
Severe FPS Drop & 5-Min Frametime Spikes after Recent Updates
Hi everyone, I am experiencing severe performance and frametime issues in Apex Legends that started recently after the latest updates. Issue Description: Since September 3: I began noticing regular frametime spikes and micro-stutters occurring approximately every 5 minutes during gameplay. Since September 9-10: My overall FPS drastically dropped from a stable 220-260 FPS down to 70-130 FPS. The game feels very sluggish and unresponsive now. System Specs: CPU: Intel Core i7-11700F GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 RAM: 32GB DDR4 Steps to Reproduce: Launch Apex Legends and enter any game mode (Battle Royale, Mixtape, or Firing Range). Play for a few minutes - frametime spikes consistently occur roughly every 5 minutes, and FPS remains capped low between 70 and 130 FPS instead of the usual 200+. Is anyone else encountering this issue after the recent patches, or is there an official fix/investigation planned for this? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!
