Three errors while updating/installing and one whenever I try to open it.

[General_Grow_Up]

So whenever I try to open Origin, I get an error: 

Origin.exe - Application Error

The application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b). Click OK to close the application.

This has been plaguing me for a month (even though it worked yesterday after a fresh install with the "thin" installer) and after finding one topic for Windows 7 that went unresolved, I figured starting this would be a good idea.

I suppose system specs are important so here are the important ones:

GPU: Radeon HD 7770

CPU: AMD FX-6300

I'm running out of storage space if that helps (19.3 GB free)

PLEASE let me know if I need to provide more information, which I will happily do.

OKAY IT WORKS NOW

What I did was I uninstalled all of my C++ packages and re-installed only the ones in the Origin files.

Thanks once more.

Hi @General_Grow_Up

First thing to do - make sure your Windows is up to date.

Perform a Clean Boot https://help.ea.com/en-us/help/FAQ/how-to-clean-boot-your-pc/

Run the setup file Origin with Admin rights  http://help.ea.com/en/article/how-do-i-run-a-program-or-a-game-as-an-administrator/#2

NOTE if your issue persists install https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=5555 and i think you should be fine.

My Opinion is no more important or right than yours.I'm a gamer like you, trying to help you (i'm not an EA employee).

If you want to know us or/and come up with ideas to improve the Origin platform or/and talk about anything and many more besides,you could also visit the section Origin General Discussion http://answers.ea.com/t5/General-Discussion/bd-p/origin-general-discussion-en

Thanks for the reply, but literally none of these solutions changed anything.

I could not install the Microsoft C++ Package because I had a never version installed.

While installing I still got three of the same error and while the files did install, nothing worked. (same error with all Origin-related items.)
