Re: How long does it take to finalize repair in origin

Hi @domokeudesu

shouldn't take hours.

I would try restarting your computer, then check if the repairing went through and if not, reinstall Origin and then try repair again.

And yes, definitively remove your cc

    I never removed cc when repairing game and it was still quick.

    Should I still remove the mods for now on?
    I didn't know to do this

    You don't need to remove them to repair but if you have issues you need to remove them to make sure the issues are not caused by them.

  • Thanks, I'd realized that it wasn't gonna stop so I went out on a whim and chanced restarting cause I wasn't sure and sure enough it started working! I added all of my cc's back after it was working properly. But thanks for your reply 🙂 it was exact

    With a good processor and a new speed disk, the fixing the game with all packs lasts for about 10 minutes. Repairing a game placed on an old type of slow disk can last up to two times as much. The speed depends on the quality of the computer. Restarting in the middle of repair is not a good idea. The repair will start once more from the beginning.
