Ok, I've been searching all over for some solutions, but I'm getting nowhere.
This started when I reinstalled Mass Effect 2, from CD (I had it working a few months ago but recently had to wipe my PC).
First the installation was weird, Origin just randomly closed a few times in the process, ended up taking most of the day before it stayed open throughout. Then I tried to download my DLC, but I was faced with this error - 65538 - 1, looked around the internet quickly, someone said to download direct from the website. So I did that, along with the update for the game.
Then I try to launch and I got the awc.dll failed to load error.
More searching showed that the update caused that problem for a few people and their solution was to reinstall. So I did that. And then didn't download anything extra.
Now when I try to launch the game I get hit with - Invalid License Reason Code Invalid Cipher 0x0006
Which doesn't make sense as I've already linked the activation code to my account, and because the pop up window before says that I need to enter the code on the next screen, so I'm not even getting the chance to do that.
So then I try to manually redeem the code from the top menu, but when I try that I just get a general error (after inputting the code), I hit continue and then it says my session has timed out.
If I try repairing the install I get this error - File Not Found ... Error 7049:404
If I try to download other games that I own in Origin, I get the same 404 Error.
If I try the Origin Help from the top menu, it says its unavailable.
And now I have idea what else to do 😭😭😭
