So.. I got stuck for almost a year on the same version. The client was correctly finding there was a newer one available, but every time I restarted to update it simply launched normally. And I tried to get out of this situation by studying its behavior and logs in <code>{{p|programdata}}\Origin\</code> (note: cleaning everything, including also stuff in {{p|localappdata}} and {{p|appdata}}, helped nothing)

<tt>Origin::Services::SelfUpdateService</tt> seemed fine before restart.. The only somehow suspcious thing was bootstrapper complaining about <tt>Error OpenSession: failed to send request</tt> on the initial online version check. Maybe they slightly changed [[https://api1.origin.com/autopatch/2/upgradeFrom/10.5.16.49299/it_IT/PROD?platform=PCWIN&osVersion=6.1.7601&servicePackVersion=1.0

Anyway, long story short the only thing I could come up with after a day of fights was that UpdateTool.exe is supposedly launched with either <code>/SelfUpdate /Beta:false /Version:''updated.new.build.version''</code> or <code>"\"''X:\whatever-folder-origin-is-installed''\Origin.exe\" /Installed:''updated.new.build.version'' /StartClientMinimized" /FinalizeSelfUpdate</code> parameters.
