Origin preventing windows shutdown windows 10

@WhenKittensATK

Thank you for referencing to that post.

To clarify; did you experience the failure to shut down? Or the memory access violation?

@Straatford87 I got the memory error during shutdown same as the first post.

Hello,

Still having the issue and Nothing has been fixed for me with the last updates. Some people on the thread seem to say that it had been fixed by Origin updates and I would like to know how they did it.

Having an Asus sound card too but it does not cause any problem with programs such as Steam or Battle.Net. So it is clearly a problem with Origin client.

Thank you.

Ofcourse. Its not done yet. Problem still is on my hardware too. Two computers. Two with Windows 10 (one Home and one Pro). Both with Xonar cards.

I've been having the same Error message since origin done there main update - (the one that change the way it looked) 

I have just clean installed my PC W10 x64 16DDR and I have a asus Xonar card in my PC also ---

Funny thing my PC seem to close down fine with Origin open for the first couple of Shut down -- and now I'm getting the same error message -- again -- like before the clean install -- 

If this can be fixed as its a PAIN --- to have to stand by your PC and click a Button to get you PC close ---

Or is there anyway to revert BACK to the OLD Origin Drivers -- so that it resolve this problem for the time being --- will you look into this and fix it? 

The ERROR i'm getting is the Memory Error as stated in this post chain.  Which in turn is causing the PC not to shut down --- = it then pops up an Origin Error message that you have to click for the PC to be able to Close down.  

Many thanks

My workaround was the following:

1) Close Origin if you have it Open

2)  Right-click on the Origin Shortcut. --> Properties

3) Compatibility---> Choose Windows XP

4) Now run Origin again,

5) It will now download a new (old) client, since it thinks it's running Windows XP.

6) Let it finish and once you got into the client go to "Origin->Application Settings" and uncheck "Keep Origin up to date"

Now close the client, follow steps 2+3 but remove the "compatibility" flag. Your client will now run in native mode, but keep the old version. While it still slows shutdown for me, no nasty error-message is displayed; whit this client you can choose to have origin close automatically when the game application is closed.

Really bad software right there and one of the reasons why PC gaming is still lacking in comparison to consoles on a "User Experience"-level.

FIX IT EA!

System:

Core i7 2600K

16GB Ram

GTX 970

Asus Xonar X1 (PCI-Soundcard) <--- Software for this is the conflicting part alright. (Hsmgr,exe/hsmgr64.exe <---- Needed for legacy EAX supprt)

3 YEARS LATER and this crap is still happening. DAfuq?
