Error (4294967287) while downloading: A redistributable package (DirectX) [ Edited ]

[KratosunAtreus]

Error: a redistributable package (directX) was not installed sucessfully. Setup cannot continue. (4294967287). I went into the anthem program files into DirectX, and ran the DirectX install as an admin. I tried rebooting, now my game is stuck "repairing" at 43% with no upload/download speeds. Edit: have deleted all game content and am retrying the download for a second time.

The fix to the issue was disabling all anti-virus. I have Avast, disabled it, retried downloading the game, installed first attempt post disablement without an issue. This is the solution to (4294967287)

Please let post again when you have a fix, im literally having the word for word, number for number popup as you, tried fudging around with drivers updating/rolling back, did the run as admin for the Directx install, and im also stuck at 43%....SHOULDNT have to jump thought this many hoops for a game in 2019....infuriating...and almost a waste at this point

I was able to find this information on Github https://github.com/lutris/lutris/wiki/Game:-Origin#game-installs

This was able to solve the install issue

• Directx fails to install when finalizing a download:

  • Open /drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Origin Games/Game Name/__Installer/directx/redistand remove all the .cab files.
  • Only these three files should remain: dsetup32.dll DSETUP.dll and DXSETUP.exe
  • Proceed with the installation.

Found a fix that worked for me.  Had to do a clean boot of my computer (Microsoft website has instructions on how to do that).  This actually worked for me, and download is currently at 51% and climbing.

@dallasinaustin valeu funcionou a primeira muito obrigado que rei

Solution: in the '\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\[Game_name]\__Installer\directx\redist\' position you have to run the 'DXSETUP.exe' program with system administrator rights. There is no need for deleting the rar files or disable the virus-protection.
