Origin thinks I'm running Windows 5.1 or lower when I am running Windows 10

★★★★ Novice

I cannot download, install or play any of my origin games because it tells me I need to run Windows 5.1 or newer. I am running windows 10 and am unsure how to fix this issue. It has only cropped up in the last few days and was running perfectly before this. Well Nox wasn't but I could at least play my sims 4. Please help!!!

★ Guide

Right-click the shortcut for Origin, go to Properties, open the Compatibility tab, made sure Compatibility mode isn't ticked.
