Just to bump this problem for anyone else who may have had this issue recently, going into the installation folder and updating the c++ files didn’t work, EA help directed me to the updated Microsoft download link for the c++ plugin

It will give you the option to install. Or if you already have the old drivers installed, and option to “repair” or “uninstall” 

Go ahead and repair, close out of origin and reboot it. And you should be good to go with no issues as long as it’s just this that isn’t working.
