Went to fire up sims 4. the Origin program went to update and then threw an error. Apparently origin somehow deleted itself. So I went to reinstall. that failed because it says to remove origin. So using the "hard" uninstall, I get to the point where I go into the program files x86 file and I cannot delete the origin folder because my own computer, that I built, is telling me I do not have admin rights. I am beyond sick and tired of this buggy AF origin installer that is a requirement to play the games I buy from this company. Nothing I do, allows me to get the admin rights to remove this folder so that I may reinstall origin.
I am sick of this and your viral program, and you will be losing a customer permanently if you cannot help me fix the errors of your crap program.

@cbff33 Sometimes, all it takes is a real restart to fix this issue. If it doesn't though, you can run a command to assign ownership of the folder to the admin (i.e. you):
