I was playing the game and found it odd that I was unable to get anyone to join a match so I restarted ME3 and Origin. Origin did and update and this is now the message I get when trying to run Origin.

Error message: Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.

After a few minutes after this message origin.exe gets deleted or is missing and will not load.

I talked with chat tech support and they say this is a known issue. Anyone else having this issue? I have searched the net and have not found any other people with this error.

For whatever reason origin.exe showed back up and running it loaded origin. Very weird.

Hi Lord_Kife ,

Did you have try installed latested origin(version:9.0.2)??

Thanks.

This happens to me every single time Origin will Update itself for no reason since one year.

I really believe you have the worst programmers on the whole planet. It's like bringin' your car to the shop for new rims and get it back with a blown engine.
