Origin won't start - crashes every time

★★★ Novice

Hi there!

 

Since the latest update, every time I start Origin it crashes and pops up the crash reporter box in the attached screenshot.

 

I have uninstalled and reinstalled Origin, and gone through the process of deleting all of the cache files as advised in this thread - http://answers.ea.com/t5/Origin/Origin-not-running-after-Update/m-p/5549891 

 

Instructions for deleting cache files - http://sims4.crinrict.com/en/2014/09/delete-origin-cache-files/

 

A temporary workaround to get Origin to start is to run Origin in compatibility mode for Windows 8 (I am using Windows 10), but now I get a popup every time that Origin is running in Compatibility mode.

 

How can I fix this crashing without running in compatibility mode?

I'm also having the same trouble. Anyone know If EA is going to fix it? Or know that it's happening to some of us.

It's happening to me too. I've uninstalled and reinstalled origin three times now.

 

Very frustrating when I've just forked out £45 for a new game.
