Crysis still downloading

★★ Novice

After installing Crysis 1, Origin informed me is was ready to play, but when i tried to launch it, it says "DOWNLOAD IN PROGRESS" despite being 100% done. Every time i try to launch the game, it crashes. I've tried reinstalling the game 3 times, i've tried repairing the game, and check for updates, but nothing works.

Hello.

Try this steps:

- close Origin, then run it as Admin, uninstall Crysis game, go to Origin > Application Settings > Advanced > press "Delete all game installers", then go to downloaded game path and delete folder related to the Crysis game (if exist)

- run regedit and delete all keys related to Crysis, such as:

 

Spoiler

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Crytek\Crysis
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Electronic Arts\Electronic Arts\Crysis

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Wow6432Node\Crytek\Crysis
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Wow6432Node\Electronic Arts\Electronic Arts\Crysis

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\\Crytek\Crysis
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Electronic Arts\Electronic Arts\Crysis

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wow6432Node\Crytek\Crysis
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wow6432Node\Electronic Arts\Electronic Arts\Crysis

Also use search and look for "Crysis" and delete keys in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\CLASSES\INSTALLER\PRODUCT\

- delete all folders related to Crysis, such as:

C:\Users\[Username]\Documents\My Games\Crysis

C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Crysis
C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Crytek\Crysis

- exit/close Origin and uninstall it

- check file system (without /r argument for speed) on system volume - C: and on volume where is game will be

- then clear Origin cache, restart PC

- download Origin installation, run it as Admin and install it

- temporary disable/close/delete any software such as antivirus or firewall and other..., or run system in clean boot mode

- possible other step https://answers.ea.com/t5/Crysis-Games/Crysis-Warhead-Origin-amp-Steam-versions-Win-64bit-Activation...
- run Origin as Admin and check download.

 

Also u can try use Origin in safe mode: go to Origin > Application Settings > Advanced > Safe Mode Downloading > Enable Safe Mode Downloading and restart Origin (run as Admin).

Have you tried to switch the download to Safe Mode and then restart Origin? Recently I had a similar problem with a different download and it worked. You can set your download to Safe Mode in advanced settings of Origin. Also, if that works, be prepared for having to download more than your current download bar shows.

Doesn't work. It still says it's downloading, despite being at 100% and still crashes.
