Can't download or install the game...try many times and many ways to fix but wit no sucess, please help me!!!
All previous threads regarding this error are partially wrong.
If you encounter this setup/install error, it's most likely not due to the DirectX files being corrupted or a missmatch.
I am talking about this error:
"Error: A redistributable package (DirectX) was not installed successfully. Setup cannot continue".
If you're stuck at 99% and the setup/install fails, exit Origin.
Now browse for the game install directory (default: C:/Program Files (x86)/Origin/Games) and find a .log file called "InstallLog" or something similar.
Check the final lines of text...
If the directX file was installed successfully, you should see that in previous lines, with a confirmation that the dxsetup.exe was installed successfully.
The error is contained in the last piece of text, and it has to do with the :
\Origin\Games\Apex\__Installer\vc\vc2010sp1\redist\vcredist_x64
file.
In order to fix it, run that file (as administrator, optional). If you get the option to repair the package, do it... If it asks you to do something else, even uninstall, do it and run the file again to reinstall.
After doing this manually, log back into Origin and let it verify the files once again. It might download something, if you deleted the directx cab files previously, but after all the check-ups, it will 100% complete the game install.
GL!
PS1: Don't forget to run the training sequence in the game, it's fast and easy to adjust, and also a quick way to tweak the mouse sensitivity, ADS input, key bindings, audio, etc.
PS2: The installlog file got deleted after install, so I couldn't take a screenshot with its content, but I'm sure someone can post a screenie of it.
Thank you it worked
- 你需要把VC+运营库全部卸载然后逐一安装,按照年份排序 不能插入安装

- @dann3boy didn't work
I had this error aswell. Instead of doing a reinstall, I navigated to the Apex files on my pc. Opened the EasyAntiCheat folder and double clicked EasyAntiCheat_Setup.exe, it launched and had a repair option. It took a second to repair and now the game works.
I cant start the game. When I launch it, it says Unexpected error. (Wait for SingleObject failed: 2). Hence, I clicked to debug the game and it says A redistributable package (EasyAntiCheat_Setup.exe). I have tried repair in easy anti Cheat. But it says Copy file failed with 32. Bruh
- @GodMalone Open your Task Manager (CTRL + SHIFT + ESC) and look for any Easy Anti Cheat processes and kill them. Then install again and it should work.
