  3. Origin will not load

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    In order to get clarity on this issue and assist you with appropriate troubleshooting steps, please reply with the answers to the questions below.



    1. Which was the update that was installed prior to this issue?
    2. What is the version of your Windows 10 computer? (To check the version of your Windows 10, you can refer
      See which version of Windows 10 you have).
    3. Do you get any error message while launching the Origin application?
    4. What was the error message that you got while reinstalling the Origin application?
    5. Are you facing this issue with any other applications?


    Meanwhile, I suggest you to follow the below steps and check if you are able to launch Origin application.



    1. Follow the steps mentioned in Uninstalling Origin Application
      and completely uninstall Origin from your computer.
    2. Then, put your computer in a Clean Boot State
      and delete the folders from the following locations.


    • Note: A Clean Boot starts Windows with a minimal set of drivers and startup programs, so that you can determine whether a background program is interfering with your game or program. Your computer may temporarily lose
      some functionality while in a clean boot environment, however, that functionality will return when you reset the computer to start normally after you have finished your troubleshooting.


    • C:\ProgramData\Origin\
    • C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Local\Origin\
    • C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\Origin\
    • C:\ProgramData\Electronic Arts\EA Services\License\


    1. Then, Download Origin and install it with the computer being in a Clean Boot
      State.
    2. Then, place the computer to normal boot by going to
      Reset the computer to start normally after clean boot troubleshooting
      section in the Clean Boot link and check if you are able to launch the Origin application.


    Write to us with the updated results and the required information for us to be able to assist you further.

    How to get my original license back

    how to get back my Window 10 Home

    Hi,

    Your computer system seems to be recognizing the new product key instead of the original one. Do you keep a copy of your original Windows 10 Home product key?

    If you have a copy of your original product key, you can add it back and replace the current one to reactivate Windows 10 Home on your computer. Here's how:

    • Click on Start.
    • Open Settings.
    • Choose Update & security.
    • Go to Activation.
    • Click on Change product key.
    • Enter the original Windows 10 Home product key.

    Let us know if you are able to fix the problem after following the steps above.

    Come back if you need additional assistance.
