Origin won’t load today. When I go to My Games it says I have no games despite having had Sims 4 yesterday in there.

@elulu8to clear origins caches make sure the app is closed then hold the Windows key + R, in the command box that opens, type %ProgramData%/Origin then click OK, after just Delete all the files and folders inside it except for LocalContent then hold the windows key + R again

@Sefdancer4lifeOpen your local hard drive. ...
Open the Library folder.
You can either use the keys Command ⌘ + Shift + G or use Finder > Go > Go to Folder.
Open the Application Support folder, then open the Origin folder.
Delete the DownloadCache folder.
Empty your Trash.

It’s bringing up the Origin file. I don’t see anywhere where I can delete the download cache file.

@Sefdancer4life Try running the Origin reset tool for macOS:
https://help.ea.com/en-us/help/origin/origin/how-to-reset-origin-on-mac/
It removes cache files and other files that might prevent Origin from loading properly.
