NFS Payback installation error

[jofifa12]

Hi there,

I just bought NFS Payback and i tried installing it. 

But apparently a error came on which said that a redistributable package (DirectX) didnt install succesfully.

I dont know what to do now so any help appreciated.

Thanks

Alright so i disabled my anti virus program during installation and ran the files mentioned before and it finally worked out. But still its kind of annoying to install. It took me 2 days to find out how to install this game. And that with such a big company like EA xd. So just disable anti malware blocker and i was fine

Please find the following files on your machine and then right click on each one and choose Run as an Administrator:

Origin Games\Need for Speed Payback\__Installer\vc\vc2015\redist\vc_redist.x64.exe

Origin Games\Need for Speed Payback\__Installer\vc\vc2013\redist\vcredist_x64.exe

Origin Games\Need for Speed Payback\__Installer\vc\vc2013\redist\vcredist_x86.exe

Once all that is done, reboot and retry playing and let us know here how that goes, thanks.

If i install the vc2015 i get an error which says that it cant install because a newer version is already installed.

Did i go right with 2 vc2013 trying to repair? I had the option to repair or unistall. I clicked on repair on both of them. 

then i rebooted and tried to start the download again but got the same error.

I also tried (as in other threads mentioned) to run DXSETUP as admin and reeboot. didnt work

Starting origin as administrator: Didnt work either.

I dont know what the problem is but it seems to exist since the release of the game. Kinda confused how it still occures although EA had over a year time to fix it. Seems also like a lot of people have the same problem. It doesnt help if I try things mentioned already in other threads because i already tried all the "solutions" i found.

Pls fix it, tell me how to fix it or give me my money back

Can you please post the exact error message including any error codes please?

It may also be helpful if you were to post your Dxdiag report here:
