EA has provided a fix to the ‘Untrusted System File’ error in Apex Legends.
The release of the new Apex Legends season has brought about buffs all across the board. With many new changes, many old players are also returning to the game. However, for some of these players, the return back to Apex Legends has been a frustrating experience. Many players are reporting the ‘Untrusted System File’ error that prevents the game from launching. Here’s how to fix the error and continue enjoying Apex Legends.
How to fix the Apex Legends ‘Untrusted System File’ error?
The Untrusted System File is when the game’s anti-cheat system prevents users from opening their game. This error has been popping up after the new update, as the system has been unable to correctly detect files in Apex Legends. While we wait for EA to provide a fix, here are a few steps that can potentially fix this issue for you.
Access the Directory and delete the folder
A Reddit user suggested a workaround that allows players to continue playing the game and remove this error. Many Apex Legends players have reported this solution to be working without any problem.
Players should to go this address and delete the particular folder: \Program Files\EA Games\Apex\paks\Win64
However, not every player might be comfortable going into the game’s directory to delete files. While EA itself has suggested this workaround, if you are not comfortable diving into the directories, we recommend going through some of the other steps in this article.
Clear Cache
A fix suggested on the EA forums is to clear the cache after making sure the game is up to date. Here’s how to clear the cache on different devices.
Mac
Restart the computer
Another temporary solution is to restart the computer. Restarting the computer refreshes all the system memory registers making it them ready to start over again. If the computer is being restarted regularly, it will run optimally over time. So we recommend trying to restart the computer in case it is an issue of memory bottleneck that is causing problems with launching Apex Legends.
Reinstall the game
Sometimes, certain files might be missing from the game, which can cause boot-up problems. As such reinstalling the game can ensure that any missing or corrupted files are re-downloaded and will solve this issue.
Wait for the server update
The final step is to simply wait for the servers to receive an update. This issue is a detection issue on the part of EA and they will push an update that will fix the problem. Since it is affecting a wide range of players, the update should come sooner than later.
