So when I go onto Origin it says I have the game but that is because I recently bought this(as I mentioned before).Before re-buying it, I did not have it. Anyway, when I right click it there is no option to repair. But when I click it to play, it takes me to the web browser as normal, etc.. but when I click to join a game it says, download or update the game. BUT as we have already established, it already says I have it installed(which for a fact, i do not. I just have a Icon)
Also running control panel as admin still did not allow me to uninstall my game :/
Is there some details I can have to contact you privately, if you would rather stick to this that is fine(no offence taken) I was just thinking that it may be faster and perhaps easier(I am in the UK, so if we could workout a time that would be great)
@monks_reed I sent you a PM on AHQ
@monks_reed 🙂 Look up top right see your name click on down arrow / tab by it and go to / pick inboox 😉 And no worries I was the same when I first came to this site lol.
EDIT... So give this a try after talking this is what I was thinking of .....
If Origin does not have anything in the My Games list (or other sections), then a file in your cache folder may be corrupted. Clearing your data cache should correct the issue and allow Origin to redownload default files and information.
How to clear your Origin data cache
Note: This will temporarily remove any downloaded material from your Origin cache. The material will be redownloaded when you start Origin again, but if you want to back it up, we have provided steps to do so. You may wish to back up rather than redownload if your Internet connection is slow or limited in some way.
- Completely exit Origin by clicking File > Exit.
-On your computer, navigate to the following directory: C:\ProgramData\Electronic Arts\Origin
-If you have previously downloaded material that you would like to back up:
1- Right-click the cache folder and choose Rename.
2- Rename this folder to something like cache.BAK.
-If you do not want to back up your files:
1- Right-click the cache folder and choose Delete.
2- A "Confirm Key Delete" window will appear. Choose Yes.
-Restart Origin and log in. If the game materials repopulate the main view screen, then the issue is likely resolved.
-To restore any material you chose to back up:
1- Completely exit Origin by clicking File > Exit.
2- On your computer, navigate to the following directory: C:\ProgramData\Electronic Arts\Origin\cache
There will be a folder with a long string for a name (such as {9C54E810EE0D968BD7C554A06864A495}).
3- Go back to the renamed/backed up cache folder and access the folder with the same alphanumeric name. Move the contents of the backup folder to the newly created cache folder.
Your prior material should now be available when you restart Origin.
NOTE- If an issue persists, you may need to clear this cache folder and redownload any material again.
