Origin is simply not responding

Hey @killer_exec can you try the following steps to see if it helps:

1. Try re-installing Origin:
   1. Close the Origin client.
   2. Open the Control Panel (find it by searching “Control Panel” in the Start menu).
   3. Click on Uninstall a program under Programs.
   4. Click on Origin and uninstall.
   5. Reinstall Origin, then try installing your game again.

Try running Origin as an administrator:

6. Close the Origin client.
7. Right-click the Origin client icon on your desktop (or in the Origin directory if not on your desktop) and click Run As Administrator.

This runs the Origin client as an administrator account, and should let the game  install.

Try lowering the User Access Control settings:

8. Close the Origin client. 
9. Click the Windows button and type "UAC" in the search field. 
10. In the User Access Control window, click and hold the slide bar —slide it to the lowest setting available. 
11. Click Ok at the bottom of the window. 
12. Open the Origin client and try installing again (click Install on the game you want).

Origin uninstaller is stuck at this point for the last 30 mins.

Hey @killer_exec are you running the installer as administrator?

I tested the installer there, for the second time today and was able to install Origin without any issue. 

Darko 

Yes, I always run the installer in administrator mode.I even tried a clean boot, and then reinstalled origin. It worked for that time, also I tried installing one game from the client.The download started and everything was fine. But after  I restarted my computer again, its still the same when I open Origin , it says not responding in the task manager. Even if I clean boot my pc and run origin, it says not responding until and unless I reinstall it once again in a separate clean boot in which I can install origin once and run it. But after one restart the same problem persists.

Hey @killer_exec that it worked with a clean boot certainly points to a system issue. The best thing I can recommend is to clean boot again and then start enabling your various programs one at a time and continue testing Origin to see if you can find the conflict.

Darko 

OKAY I will try this and get back to you 

Do let me know how you get on @killer_exec.

Darko 

Great to hear that you found a fix @killer_exec.

No harm reaching out to your Anti-Virus provider to let them know of the issue as they may have a fix that works for you.

Darko 

Ya, I am looking forward to do it as well because that is the only alternative option I have.
