    Hey guys,

    please stick to English in this discussion, that'd be great - we also do have a dedicated Russian forum if you want to discuss that topic there, it's just that we want everybody to be able to take part in the conversation and since we're in the English forums, not everybody will be able to understand and follow your tips.

    That said, if you are prompted with the message to use the task manager to close down Battlefield 3, please do as instructed.

    - Launch the task manager (Ctrl+Shift+Esc)

    - Rightclick the process "bf3.exe"

    - Choose "end task"

    You're done. Grab a coffee and enjoy your day.

    That's just sleepy me not realizing I'm typing the abbreviation from my German keyboard - apologies. It's CTRL (Control), just like STRG (Steuerung) in German.

    Also remember to pronounce it very angrily!

    So, I killed BF3.exe in the Task Manager but I keep getting the same error. Why can't it communicate with bf3, and should I uninstall, and reinstall it. Will Origin let me?
