Unable to re-install Origin

[ Edited ]
★★ Novice

Unable to re-install Origin after uninstalling it after it wouldn't open (I admit I did not "properly" uninstall it, by this I mean I deleted the Origin file and Origin Games file itself). Keep getting the same error everytime I try to open the setup for Origin. I've tried everything from a full wipe on everything related to Origin to running command prompts which did not solve the problem.

 

Help would be appreciated, thanks. I really wanna get back to Battlefield 1 again Frown
