    Try to clear your Origin cache.
    All settings in Origin (only in Origin not in the games) are back to default settings after this.)

        - close Origin completely. (right click on the Origin symbol in the task bar > close)
        - Press the Windows key and "R" at the same time.
        - Type or copy  "%ProgramData%/Origin" (without quotes) > hit ENTER
        - Delete all the files and folders in the Origin folder, except for the "LocalContent" folder. (The "LocalContent" folder must remain untouched.)

        - Delete the "Mass Effect 3" folder inside the "LocalContent" folder.
        - Press the Windows key and "R" at the same time.
        - Type or copy "%AppData%" (without quotes)  > hit ENTER
        - Now your Windows explorer should have brought you to your "C:\Users\>your user name<\AppData\Roaming" folder
        - Delete the "Origin"  folder inside the "Roaming" folder
        - In the address bar of your Windows explorer click on the word "AppData".
        - Open the "Local" folder
        - Delete the "Origin"  folder inside the  "Local" folder
        - Restart your PC. > Test.

    If that don't works, do you use mods that don't require Textmode? (ME3 Explorer or ME3 mod manager mods)

thanks @sundance31us using texmod isn't the actual problem. It is disappearing from my win32 folder when i try to run ME3 through it.

With the Texmod dialogue box all set to go, all you have to do is press "Run"...have you tried coping a fresh Texmod.exe into your "Win32" file?

    @holger1405 and @sundance31us; I really think that this problem must be my pc. Nothing has worked, but thanks. To both of you.

        i tried this and not everything deleted. Some logfiles and some others wouldn't delete, said they were in use. Anyway I just went with it and now ME3 is downloading its dlc (?) and I couldn't get into Origin without the latest update, so...... We'll see how it goes this time. Thank you Holger
