I was able to fix this problem by deleting the Origin cache files

  1. first "view hidden files and folders"  Show hidden files
  2. Delete Origin folder in C:\ProgramData\
  3. Delete Origin folder in C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\
  4. Delete Origin folder in C:\Users\ <username> \AppData\Roaming\

Specifically, this is the one subfolder that cured the problem for me:

 

C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Origin\Origin

 

(Yes, the double "Origin" is on purpose: there's an "Origin" subfolder within the main "Origin" folder.)

 

Deleting this one subfolder resolved the "Well that didn't go as planned" error and brought back the usual game list and full Origin functionality.

 

If you delete only this subfolder, you will not have to log in to Origin again and all your Origin application settings will be retained.
