Origin Client indicates "online login is currently unavailable"

[shahmaht]

Like the title says I am not able to attempt to login to origin using the client on Windows 10 due to the connectivity problem. I can login into to the origin website and access my account via Chrome though.

I have tried to uninstall and reinstall the client and it did not help.

Steam, Epic, etc is functioning correctly.

What else can I try?

Sorry to hear that you are having issues @shahmaht.

The best thing to do when this occurs takes a couple of minutes to go through the following steps:

• Close Origin completely by right clicking the Origin system tray icon and selecting Exit.
• Make sure Time/Date is correctly set on the PC
• Make sure Origin is authorized by your anti-virus and firewall
• Reset Internet Explorer Settings
• Untick the options in LAN Settings ( make sure nothing is checked under Proxy Server )
• Clear Origin Cache Data
• Reset the Windows Host File
• Reboot your computer. Now right-click Origin and select Run as administrator
• If still unresolved, please do a clean boot

Let me know how you get on.
