Clear your Origin cache by following these steps :

• Close Origin completely by right-clicking the Origin system tray icon and selecting Exit.

• Press the Windows key and R at the same time to open the Run dialog box.

• Type %ProgramData%/Origin into the Run window and click OK.

• Delete all the files and folders in the Origin folder, except for LocalContent.

• Press the Windows key and R again to open another Run dialog box.

• Type %AppData% into the Run window and click OK.

• In the Roaming folder that opens, delete the Origin folder.

• Click on AppData in the address bar.

• Open the Local folder and delete the Origin folder there as well.

• Restart your PC and launch Origin again.

• Update your Windows and GPU drivers to the latest versions. You can check for Windows updates by going to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update. You can check for GPU driver updates by visiting the website of your GPU manufacturer, such as NVIDIA, AMD, or Intel.

• Set exceptions for Origin.exe and TS4_x64.exe (or the executable file of your game) in your antivirus or firewall settings. You can also try disabling your antivirus or firewall temporarily and see if that helps. However, make sure to enable them again after you are done playing.

• Repair your game by right-clicking on the game icon in your Origin game library and selecting Repair. You can also try uninstalling and reinstalling both Origin and your game. When you do this, run Origin as an administrator by right-clicking on its shortcut and selecting "Run as administrator." Run both Origin and your game as an administrator when you try to play as well .

• If none of the above solutions work, you can try creating a new Origin account and see if that works. Some users have reported that this error is tied to their account and creating a new one solved it. However, this means that you will lose all your progress and achievements in your games, so use this as a last resort.
