Can’t connect to EA servers to activate Battlefront 2 with this account.

I can’t connect to Starwars Battlefront 2 via Origin. I get an error message “Can’t connect to EA servers with this account to activate Star Wars Battlefront 2, please try again later”. I have no issue playing games off Battlenet and Steam.

Things I’ve tried:

Restart PC

Ran in Administrator mode
Disable Mcafee Firewall
Disable Windows Firewall
Uninstalled Anti Virus (Mcafee)
Cleared DNS via command prompt
Cleared Origin Cache
Called my internet provider to open the ports EA provided on their website
Repaired Battlefront 2
Uninstalled/Reinstalled Origin
Uninstalled/Reinstalled Battlefront 2
Toggeled run Origin in background on/off
Updated graphics driver
Ran System Requirements Lab - I meet minimum requirements

he means he wiped his windows, or reset it to factory default which mean you loose all your data and start fresh ( it is like starting with a new windows operating system that has no application except for the built it applications)

Im pretty sure you cant get a factory restore or reset due to because its mainly on PC.
