Origin Minimizing My games

★★★★ Novice

Every 15 - 20min Origin pops up as the main window causing whatever game im playing to either be minimized to task bar or to run as second window behind Origin. It started doing this with the latest update how do i fix? It makes FUT impossible because origin will just pop up mid match causing immediate disqualification. Even if im just watching a moving, origin will just pop up every 20 mins. But biggest problem is disconnection during Rivals matches.

 

Please  help EA

This fixed the problem:

 

1. Close Origin and services processes (OriginWebHelperService.exe и OriginClientService.exe).

 

2. Delete all files in 2 folders

"C:\ProgramData\Electronic Arts\EA Services\License"

"C:\Users\<UserName>\AppData\Local\Electronic Arts\EA Services\License"

 

3. Start Origin again

I noticed that at that moment origin is checking other games in the background. I think it has to do with origin access, because those games are poping up in task manager.

@BoogieNL1982 Sadly I bought FIFA 21 through Steam and I only have got following folder: "C:\ProgramData\Electronic Arts\EA Services\License"

The Local Appdata Folder isn't visible (even with showing hidden files), is there any other possibility to fix?
