This could be because I updated to windows 10. A similar error occurred when I attempted to play bf3, but it allowed me to login, validating the license.

That error indicates something is wrong with your system. Specifically your Microsoft Visual C++ installation. Try running the installer from the BF4 installation folder as administrator and then restart your computer. The default location of this installer is here:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Battlefield 4\__Installer\vc\vc2012Update3\redist
If you installed Origin in another driver or within an other location, find that location then search for:
Battlefield 4\__Installer\vc\vc2012Update3\redist
In redist, find both the x86 and x64 versions of VCredist.exe. Run and install both versions, and your game should now launch without error.

I have just updated to Windows 10 and receive the same error for BF4. It was working perfectly the day before, prior to the update.
I have tried the solutions listed in this thread several times, but still the error persists. The only thing I can even think of is that it is installed on my D: drive and not my C: drive, but that still doesn't make sense to me.
Can you assist me?
Thank you!
