Necessarily have to do these steps

manually uninstall Origin http://help.ea.com/en/article/manually-uninstalling-origin/
run CCleaner http://help.ea.com/en/article/how-to-use-ccleaner-to-fix-pc-issues/
install Origin https://www.origin.com/en-ie/download

-and do this...

First step... updating your Origin client...to the latest Beta version /top left Origin menu, Application Settings - General.. 
The  second step... restart Origin and make sure you are the administrator, run the setup file Origin with Admin rights.

I appreciate the fix, but you did not answer the question.  Why is this occurring?

[ZandorLord]

I have this problem too and the fix given here didn't work for me.

I did the CCleaner part and everything.

Is there another fix available?

For me I just had to run Origin as an Administrator and the download seemed to install itself correctly.

I didn't have to uninstall Origin, just right clicked it and went "Run as Administrator".

Hope this helps others out there with this problem.

This worked for me!!

i think its a real solution, over the supercomplicated registry thing.

thanks

Easier way, try this:

Launch it as administrator. Right click and select "Run as Administrator".

It works for me.

While this worked for me, I found that the next update was back to usual. Unless I run as admin each time I need to install updates... bad programming EA, bad.
