Please clear your temp files:

• Press the Windows key and "R" at the same time
• Into the new window, type or copy & paste:  "%temp%"   (Without the quotes.) > hit "ENTER"
• Now your Windows Explorer should have brought you to the "C:\Users\>your user name<\AppData\Local\Temp" folder. > Delete all files and folders in it.
  (If some files or folders can't be deleted, reboot and try again.)

Then:

• Go here and download "Revo Uninstaller". (The freeware version, Portable version works too.)
• Run "Revo Uninstaller" > Uninstall EA app.
• At the end of the main uninstall, Revo will ask you which cleaning method you want to use. > Select "Advanced" > Browse.
• If "Remaining registration content found" is displayed > Select All > Delete > Next
• When "Remaining Data and Folders" is displayed > Select All (Make sure the "Origin Games" folder is not in the list) > Delete.
• Restart the PC > Reinstall the newest version of EA app from here.
• Test

I just went through all the steps and the DLC still won't download.

Ok, then I can only suggest a workaround:

Make sure EA app and Steam are closed.

Download the DLC from this EA side for classic DLCs.

Put the "DA2_BlackEmporium.exe" into your DA2 game folder.

Run the "DA2_BlackEmporium.exe" as Administrator. (Right click the exe > Run as Administrator.)

If you get a DA2 is not installed error message:

• Use Win Zip, Win Rar or 7zip to unpack the "DA2_BlackEmporium.exe" (If you don't have a compression software > 7-Zip)
• Open the "DA2_BlackEmporium", folder, then the "$_2_" folder and then the "addins" folder
• Copy the "da2_prc_one" folder to your Dragon Age 2 "addins" folder (Standardly: "C:\Program Files\EA Games\Dragon Age II\addins\"
• That's it, the DLC should work now.
