Origin wont leave offline mode, staying on error message

[Kawnir]

After spending 3 hours downloading the game last night, through steam, i tried to open it up this morning only for Origin to start having issues. Every time i open it up, it says:

Well, that didn't go as planned

Origin encountered an issue loading this page. Please try reloading it – if that doesn’t work, restart the client or try again later.

I also noticed that it's currently in offline mode, and i cant find a way of changing that. I tried a process on a different Forum, which included deleting the cache from Internet Explorer, but it didn't help. If anyone can help with this problem, please let me know.

Sorry to hear that you are having issues @Kawnir.

When this issue occurs you can fix it if you take a couple of minutes to go through the following steps:

• Close Origin completely by right clicking the Origin system tray icon and selecting Exit.
• Make sure Time/Date is correctly set on the PC
• Make sure Origin is authorized by your anti-virus and firewall
• Reset Internet Explorer Settings
• Untick the options in LAN Settings ( make sure nothing is checked under Proxy Server )

Disable Changing Internet Explorer’s Proxy Settings:

1. Type gpedit.msc in the Start menu’s search box and then press Enter.
2. Navigate to User Configuration, Administrative Templates, Windows Components, and then select Internet Explorer in the left column of the Group Policy editor.
3.  Double-click Disable changing proxy settings in the Settings section of the Group Policy editor.
4. Select Enable and then click OK to save the changes.

• Clear Origin Cache Data
• Reset the Windows Host File
• Reboot your computer. Now right-click Origin and select Run as administrator
• If still unresolved, please do a clean boot

Let me know how you get on.
