Edit:. I just saw your second post. You specifically need to use TS3.exe, not the launcher .exe. Again, TS3w.exe with the w is only if you installed using a disc or through Steam; TS3.exe is for an Origin install.
@heather2131 You've set the Max Frame Rate to 60 and it still goes over? That's uncommon, but it's fine, there are other tools you can try instead. The simplest one to use is RivaTuner Statistics Server, which is free and doesn't have any extra features to deal with. The one caveat is that it does have to be running while you play, so don't X it out, just minimize it to the tray. When you install and launch it, you'll see this:
You can choose to start it with Windows or not (yellow box); it takes very little in the way of resources, so it's not a big deal to have it running. Again, choose TS3.exe for an Origin install or TS3w.exe for other kinds of installs, then set your preferred framerate limit (red box). You may need to restart your computer to get it to work.
