Could not connect to Origin services error code 14-1
I wasted several hours trying to resolve this. I was trying to troubleshoot Origin's issue saying I'm not online while playing Sims 4, when obviously I am online and able to complain at their website...

Hey @frisky650 that error points to something on your system blocking Origin.
The best thing to do when this occurs takes a couple of minutes to go through the following steps:
- Close Origin completely by right clicking the Origin system tray icon and selecting Exit.
- Make sure Time/Date is correctly set on the PC
- Make sure Origin is authorized by your anti-virus and firewall
- Reset Internet Explorer Settings
- Untick the options in LAN Settings ( make sure nothing is checked under Proxy Server )
- Clear Origin Cache Data
- Reset the Windows Host File
- Reboot your computer. Now right-click Origin and select Run as administrator
- If still unresolved, please do a clean boot
Let me know how you get on.
