    Documents folder is different.  We need C Drive, Program Files (x86), Origin Games, now we can rename that PvZ folder that's in there.

    Documents just a few minor settings files.  No game data.

  • do if i rename it then i cant play it anymore? or if i do rename it the download should work?

    The reason we are renaming it is so Origin doesn't see it anymore.  This is better than deleting it because you can rename it back in the future and Origin will see it like it does now.  Even though it's broken and not working... atleast you can't say I made you delete it and ruined your computer lol

    When Origin doesn't see it anymore, it will say "hey I need to download this complete completely from scratch" and proceed to download.

    With luck it won't have that weird jumping downloading progress bar and finish download, then install, then play.

    After that we can discuss the FPS issue... but I'm terrified of that conversation lol

  • ok ill rename it real quick and redownload it hopefully your right about this working :3

  • hopefully your right i am redownloading it right now i am very scared about this please be right

  • ok i am ready to talk about the frames per second thing now please respond when your ready thanks for helping me hopefully it downloads

    A alienware will...  They only make gaming computers

    The connection has nothing to do with your Frames per Second... but a better connection helps other things in multiplayer games.

  • exactly the connection will help the lag and the computer will help the frames per second am i right or wrong?

    Just to be clear, you were able to find the Program Files folder right and not Documents?

    Sorry ☹️

    Okay...... 

    If you want another thing to try...  This is going to be like pulling teeth my friend.

    Pause the Download.

    Close Origin.

    Right click on your computer icon at the bottom right

    Open Network and Sharing Center

    Change Adapter Settings (top left)

    Right click on the adapter that is "Connected"  (two blue computer screen)

    Select Properties

    Scroll down

    Find "Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4"

    Left click it

    Click Properties

    Select "Use the following DNS server address"

    type  8.8.8.8  (first box)

    8.8.4.4  (second box)

    Ok out of all of it.

    Go to Start

    Type "CMD"

    Right click on "cmd.exe"

    Run as Administartor

    black screen comes up

    type " ipconfig /flushdns "

    Open Orgin

    Resume download

    ----------

    For someone else reading this and wonder "WTF is he doing this for"

    It changes the CDN target... maybe the server he's pulling it from has a corrupt file causing the loop.

  • wootcandy do you have any other solutions cuase this is bull **bleep** i payed 35 dollars and i cant even play the game cause they made it where they have so many bugs and the download doesnt work
