I am forced to post this here as contacting EA customer service has got me either lies or just tell me to go ask some else for help on the issue even though it's clear as day down to EA as to the reason!!!!
First can I say that this is now the 4th time I have had to contact EA about this issue and now wasted 4 hours coming up to 5 hours wasted as to no fault of my own.
I have first listened to the EA rep last night that told me to wait a couple of hours and the game will work - False and wrong information
Then I was told to contact the retailer that sold the game as to the problem and after speaking to them it's clearly not an issue they can resolve or even have responsibility for.
So I am now back to EA as I stated for a 4th time with the exact same problem as before.
I have purchased FIFA18 and the game shows up in my game library and even shows I have purchased the game via shop and so forth yet for some reason EA ORIGIN will not allow me to download the game to even be able to play it.
The retailer stated that the game is shown to be purchased within origin and thus the purchase was successful and issues with installation of the game would be an issue EA deal with and not them.
They even gave me a second code but it will not let me use as to the fact I have fifa18 in library already.
So I am very fed up at being pushed pillar to post by EA reps for a matter that is clearly EA's side and I want this matter resolved.
As I stated I have already spent 4-5 hours trying to get this fixed and it's always the same with EA nothing can be done quickly and I always have a bad taste in my mouth after dealing with you guys.

Title says it all, no matter what I have tried, I can't get any games to download. Game title blacks out and says 'Download in Queue' but if I try. Best Answer: Hi, From Oriigin's FAQ:- Make sure to correctly configure your security software and check that any Internet monitoring services (e.g. Net-Nanny) are turned off. If you continue to experience issues, contact Origin Help.
Why can't I download files from the internet? Hi, What security software do you have on the notebook? Open windows Control Panel, open Internet Options, click the Advanced Tab, click the 'Reset' Button, then click Apply and OK. Restart the notebook and see if this has helped. How do I launch the Origin client? I feel so stupid for asking this, but I can't figure out how to launch the Origin client without first starting a game. How do I create a simple shortcut to this stupid thing? Today I wanted to buy Battlefield and, after checking out at the Origin website, I had to open Origin to start the download.

Windows 10 and Origin Problems (Temp Fix)
I posted this on Origin forums so am just going to copy paste it here:
Hello everyone,
Why Can't I Download Flash Player
I encountered this problem after updating from win7 to win10. When attempting to launch Origin.exe I get the following error message:
'Windows cannot find 'C:Program Files (x86)OriginOrigin.exe'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again.' Frigidaire serial number.
I talked with the support and did a clean install of Origin (deleted program data and registry and all that) but the problem still persist. Now what I did to fix it temporarily is the following:
1- Go to your Origin.exe folder
2- Rename Origin.exe to something else i.e. 'Originn.exe'
3- If Origin starts with downloading updates, change it back to 'Origin.exe'
Dell 3537 sm bus controller driver. 4- After finishing updates, rename to something else again.
Why Can't I Download Anything
I don't know what Windows 10 issue with some executable files, it is giving me the same problem, same error with Adobe Acrobat Reader when trying to open any .pdf file. Hope this helped
