From the readme:

If you would like the Dragon Age Updater service to run when your
system starts, follow these steps:
- Run "services.msc" from the Run menu option in Windows. Pressing
the Windows key + "r" will bring this up. (NOTE: services.msc
controls essential components of Windows. Errors in configuration
can prevent the system from operating correctly. Any changes you
make in services.msc are at your own risk.)
- Find the "Dragon Age: Origins Updater" service in the list.
- Double-click on the service to bring up the properties.
- Press the "Start" button if the service is not currently running.
- Change "Startup type:" to "Automatic".
- Close the properties and Services interface.
Clicking the start button there is the important bit
This buggered me around a bit as well, but when I started the service, all was well.
