@Robbixkun Hi, 

 

If the installation is still failing, please follow the below steps in exact order:

  1. Restart your router/modem and do a Clean Boot.
  2. Make sure that your UAC is enabled and set to notify.
  3. Add firewall/antivirus exceptions for Origin and open the needed ports.
  4. When starting Origin, please make sure to run it as Administrator once more.

Let us know how you get on afterwards.

 

Cheers,

Nils

@Robbixkun  Hi, 

 

When starting Origin, please make sure to run it as Administrator. This will ensure that the installer will have the ability to create all necessary folders.

 

Let us know how you get on afterwards.
