Apex running in background, but never loads

★★★★ Novice

Hey all. So basically the title kind of explains it. The game will load up, be running if I bring up the task manager, but never loads. I have to restart my PC in order to boot the game. I have tried repairing, re-installing, re-installing Origin, disabling any firewalls, nothing seems to work. 

Any ideas of what could be causing this? 

I tried to look at the items that are running upon start up VS the things on after my pc has been running (which is when the game will not properly launch) 

Thanks

I've gotten this bug a couple of times and I might have a fix for you. If Apex Legends doesn't load even when running in background, first then go to your task manager, then end the task for Apex and try to launch Apex again. Whenever I got this launch bug I did this and it would work.

 

I hope that this helps!

@TriggerWordz I did try this, also shut down origin completely as well as their anti-cheat software. Nothing seemed to work.

@TriggerWordz Yeah, that and I get horrible stuttering and d/c's upon trying to load into a game. Its insane how unstable this game is compared to everything else I play.

Hey @LuckyLukse, maybe disabling fullscreen optimizations will done the problem.

@Sick1Click I currently have it on borderless windows with everything turned down to low because of that issue to see if it helped, but it didnt. I assume its my ram because the game takes up to 40-50% of my computers power... somehow.

@LuckyLukseRAM could be possible. Did you enabled XMP in bios? If not, do it. 16GB RAM are enough for apex by the way.
