Origin Bad Image

[ Edited ]
★ Novice

I've continued to get an error saying Bad Image for Origin and i've yet to find a way to fix it! I've tried deleting the file and downloading the latest version, downloading Microsoft c++ 2013, and running it as an administrator. I don't know what else I can do at this point. I've attempted to delete and reinstall Origins and after a few tries it worked, but today it hasn't and i'm at a complete loss at what to do now!

This issue is generally caused by running an out of date VC++ installation. It can be resolved by manually running the installer from the Origin installation folder, I know you've already done so but can you try installing both again - the default location for this folder is:

 

C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin

 

From this folder, run one of both files:

 

  • vcredist_x86_vs2015 (for 32bit Windows version)
  • vcredist_x64_vs2015 (for 64bit Windows version)

If you get the message that the files are already installed, select Repair instead. It is recommended to run the installer as administrator (right-click the file, select run as admin).

 

You can also find the latest files on the Microsoft website:

Thank you for the assistance Darko, but it didn't get me anywhere. I'm contacting EA to see if maybe they can help me figure this out.
