    @TeddyEAC @PlayApex @Steam I'm getting an Untrusted System File error when running Apex. Did everything on your manuals on how to fix it. Help?

  • DavidSchenet David Schenet (@DavidSchenet) reported

    This is probably the longest @NVIDIAGFN outage I've seen in a while. A "steam update" downloaded on the GFN side hours ago, and ever since then, no @Steam games will launch. Error 0xCOF52104 Epic Store games seem to work. Dunno about Ubisoft, since I have no games there.

  • MagoDuende DuendeMago (@MagoDuende) reported

    @JDFrazier @Steam I don't think so, but little by little the forums are being filled with many people having this issue, from Apex Legends to Hunt Showdown, etc.
