Hi becca25co,

 

Normally you would just log out and completely exit Origin and then click on Start > Control Panel  > Programs and Features > and then double click on Origin.

 

Should you still have issues afterwards, this is how you can manually uninstall: https://help.ea.com/article/manually-uninstalling-origin

 

After you are done uninstalling, you can re-install the game by visiting this page: http://www.origin.com/download

 

Cheers,

Nils

lsjaboe, can you elaborate at what stage exactly you are encountering this error? Is it when clicking on download on the webpage or when first starting the Origin client after installing it?

My origin hasn't been working so I decided to uninstall it then reinstall it but everytime I open it up it opens to a blank log screen. How do I fix this? Origin please help.
