Origin launcher keeps pulling out of the game to the desktop.

This worked for me, I got it from another post, on here and am just re-posting in case others haven't seen it.

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

Can we get a reply from an admin or community manager in regards to this situation?  Is the Origin development team aware of this and working on a fix for the client?

Same issue while playing Apex Legends. Only started when I received a new update for Origin tonight. 

[BadBoyBrains]

Origin PC App - 

this started 4/20/2020 - possibly after update.

Origin app would restart on its own and say I'm playing a game that is in my library but I'm not playing the game.

When I'm actually playing a game - Battlefield V - after a couple mins - i lose input of my battlefield game. and it tabs me out saying that Im playing Anthem , or any other game in my library.  When I tab back in to my Battlefield game , everything is working again.  but after a couple mins it will tab out  again

the origin app on my windows 10pc closed down about 3 times and said i was playing need for speed, battlefront 2, then anthem   - it cycled through them. then said online during this letter !!!!

I changed my password

I ran a virus checker

i dont see any issues. 

Why is it doing this?  I checked the computer history trusted - and they are all my computer.

Please help

@Jeeper7 Thanks that worked for me

I was running into the same problem but found a potential workaround. I kept the task manager open on a second screen and it showed that other executables were trying to launch along with an activation process. I uninstalled and reinstalled the games that were trying to launch and it hasn't done it in the last hour. I did notice that it was all the games that had been added with my Origin Access if that helps anyone.

@Jeeper7 Seems to be working so far, cheers for that.

Thanks for posting this. I did exactly as you said and it worked perfectly.

I had the same issue after Origin kept popping up every two minutes for an hour straight, and ironically, it didn't do this until after I updated it 
on April 21, 2020.

Origin software stopped popping up like that when I loaded The Sims 4, but then my game had the same issue that yours had - it tabbed out

every two minutes the whole entire time that I tried to play for 2.25 hours.

Glad to know I'm not the only one having this issue!
