Download and install both the x86 and x64 versions of the required Visual Studio files:

• x86: vc_redist.x86.exe

• x64: vc_redist.x64.exe

If required, the following steps can also help in this situation.

• Right click your game in Origin and then choose Repair
• Run System File Checker to ensure the integrity of your Windows System files: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929833
  

Let us know your results, thanks.

I recently had to reinstall my Win10 from scratch due to adding new drives and corrupting existing installation in the process. I'm currently restoring all the apps I had before and everything is working fine (even dreaded Office) except for this wretched sorry excuse for installer - OriginThinSetup. Come on, are You really trying to live up to Your reputation?

@KoJotPi might add that the problem is not in VC nor firewall because i tried all that solutions before posting and the installer still just hangs on Installing the latest version of Origin

I fully updated Win10 before moving over to installing other apps

well 2020 september, due to crashes of windows 10 I decided to reinstall windows 10.  But now next day i want to install origin. I went to the site of origin choose download. That is where the drama started. why it is so hard to install origin? before it installed fine .Now it is only drama. Come on origin step up your money game. Customers pay you loads of money and your not even able to come up with proper software in 2020!

Tired of looking all these forums about solutions. Nothing works.

Agree fully!
I got a brand new gaming PC, with Win10, and tries to install Orgin, but installation hangs and I have no clue what to do, if it can be fixed and how. No response to interpret why the installation does not succeed. Feels like stone age this!
