I've been playing apex fine until a reinstall windows from a bootable USB. Now, I've been having these errors from event viewer:

I tried sfc /scan, Dism, chkdsk, clean boot, resetting windows and still the errors remain. The version of my windows is 21H1 (OS Build 19043.1081)

Please help.

Thank you in advance.

Good day! I'm Raniel, an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft user like you.

Aside from running the SFC and DISM commands to repair system files, kindly re-register your windows apps as well:

1. On your search bar, type "Windows PowerShell" and select Run as administrator
2. Type the commands:

Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted and press Enter

Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"} and press Enter

3. Reboot your machine, then check again.

If that didn't work, kindly enable the "built-in" administrator account to isolate the issue:

1. On your search bar, type command prompt and select "run as administrator"
2. On the command prompt window, type net user administrator /active:yes and press Enter
3. Reboot your machine, then login to your admin account, and check if you'll encounter the same issue.

Note: If you don't encounter the issue on the built-in administrator account, I suggest that you create a new user account (go through the steps under "My computer is in a workgroup") . Please refer to this article as a guide: https://support.microsoft.com/help/14039/window...

I hope this helps. Good luck!
