@DCAustin007 Sorry to see that you are having issues, I user Origin on a daily basis and have not experienced issues with it being slow or laggy. As Origin is a modified browser it may be a case that you are having issues with your settings that is slowing it down, can I ask what exactly the issue you are seeing is, does Origin freeze, take a long time to respond or other?
Can you also let me know what if any troubleshooting you have done and if you have not already cleared the Origin cache can you please do so?
You can clear the Origin Cache by following the steps below:
- Completely log out and close down Origin
- Hold down the Windows key and R
- Type in "%ProgramData%" (without quotes) and click OK
- Now open the Origin folder.
- Delete all the files and folders in the Origin folder, except for LocalContent (do not delete this one)
- Hold down the Windows key and R
- Type in "%AppData%" (without quotes) and click OK
- This will take you to a Roaming folder, which is located inside of AppData. Delete the Origin folder
- Click on the word "AppData" at the top of your window
- Open the Local folder here
- Delete the Origin folder listed here
- Restart your PC and log back into Origin
