So I tried later versions of the Origin, but every one later got the EA app time-to-update popup. So now its all totally messed up and I don't have whole-day sessions to deal with it again until semester break.
When there is a guaranteee that my Store content isn't going to uninstall, requiring a re-download re-install every time I restart my computer, is when I will update to the EA app on the PC I play it. I have updated on the laptop for accessing the SimPoints, but not for playing.
