Error 131086:262149
I downloaded Battlefield 3 today and I'm trying to install it with Origin. Whenver I get to 90% the installation stops and gives me the error code 131086:262149. What do I do?

EA StaffUnfortunately, that file doesn't help much with this error message. Windows 8 shouldn't be a problem either, even though it's not officially supported, Origin should work without major hiccups, it's working perfectly fine for me at home.
Can you please make sure that Origin is running with administrative rights, to do so, right-click the Origin shortcut on your desktop and select Run as Administrator.
Yes I have tried that already.

I am not sure if this could be a source of the issue, but I downloaded this game off Uplay, and in order to start the install I have to start it through Uplay and then it transfers over to Origin, otherwise Origin wants me to redownload the whole file, so I don't know if that is an issue and perhaps I need to redownload entirely through Origin? I am out of ideas.

That's good to know, can you start Uplay via a right-click -> Run as administrator please and try again. On a computer every process (program) has a parent process from which it inherits its priviledges, in this case Uplay is launching Origin and if Uplay is missing some priviledges, Origin will be missing them as well which could lead to this error message.
If that doesn't help either and Battlefield is showing up in your games library in Origin, then please try installing if from Origin directly.
Hope any of this works for you.

Well thats what is odd about it, In order to start the installation I have to start it through Uplay, because if I start Origin by itself then it only prompts me to download the game again even though its already been downloaded, is there a way to get Origin to recognize that I already have the game, I really dont want to redownload the entire game on Origin just in the hopes that I wont get the same error, why is it that I have the game downloaded through Uplay, but Origin does not recognize that it has already been downloaded?
