Thought I’d post this little tip as I haven’t seen it for quite some time & I myself didn’t want the Featured Today constantly popping up!

**ORIGIN IN GAME**

Open Origin / Application Settings / Origin In Game ( REMOVE ) the check from the Enable Origin In Game box

**FEATURED TODAY**

Open Origin / Application Settings / Advanced / Featured Today ( Place a check in the Hide Featured Today ) when first opening Origin

Good Luck & Best Wishes, GUNNY

Considering origin in game screws up the game for a lot of people, definitely needs to be a sticky.

If only it worked, every time I open Origin, I STILL get featured today toot.

Beware the hyper moderators!

Why use “caps” on a post that you want people to read..

I would suggest doing a search for a similar post (bump it saying ty) or repost correctly once this is locked.

p.s. thanx for posting

yeah well, i guess we do as it’s still an extremely common thing here that gets overlooked on a regular basis.

Nobody really cares about your trees let alone your insignificant comments!

Helpful post OP- a suggestion.. Maybe add to your post to say why Origin in game should be unticked. (its been known to cause stuttering/spikes/fps drops for a lot of gamers. Turning it off gets rid of these. This thread should be a sticky. Searching forum for cause of stuttering/fps drops can make for some confusion as there are so many possible causes. Many don’t know about disabling this. It got enabled by default too in a recent update. Needs to be turned off.
