That's an odd one @Terryal93 and not something that I can recall having seen before.

The best thing that I can recommend is trying the steps below:

1. Try re-installing Origin:
   1. Close the Origin client.
   2. Open the Control Panel (find it by searching “Control Panel” in the Start menu).
   3. Click on Uninstall a program under Programs.
   4. Click on Origin and uninstall.
   5. Reinstall Origin

Try running Origin as an administrator:

6. Close the Origin client.
7. Right-click the Origin client icon on your desktop (or in the Origin directory if not on your desktop) and click Run As Administrator.

This runs the Origin client as an administrator account

Try lowering the User Access Control settings:

8. Close the Origin client. 
9. Click the Windowsbutton and type "UAC" in the search field. 
10. In the User Access Control window, click and hold the slide bar —slide it to the lowest setting available. 
11. Click Okat the bottom of the window. 
12. Open the Origin client 

Let me know how you get on.
