Spore Internet problem

[reagle22]

Hey, I just downloaded Spore onto my Windows 10 Pro Insider Preview PC and tried playing it, but it always says the same thing, "The game needs access to the internet in order to verify ownership of this game. Please ensure that your computer is online and try again." But see, I have my pc connected to my internet, and I have Origin online (Yes I bought online from Origin) I have tried everything, from starting it with my internet open and closed, please help me asap.

I would suggest to try starting the game directly in your Origin client.

Your issue might also be caused by not having given Spore the proper rights in Windows 10.

It should be run in admin mode and please make sure your firewall is not preventing internet access.
