Battlefield 3 Origin admin problem

by viol • 30 Nov 2011, 21:31 • Journals
Hi,

now I could activate it, but the next problem occured. When I want to download Battlefield it says "To continue you have to logged in as administrator". Was anyone able to fix this? I can't fix it.
I tried to login as administrator. I used the "run as administrator" command. I tried the safe mode of windows. Anyone knows how to fix this crap?

PS: Origin is the worst piece of software ever made.

Right click on the main BF3 folder - properties, security tab and click edit button. Make sure all of the accounts are allowed all the rights... then load it again.
