    • Head to the Battlefield 4 installation folder, C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Battlefield 4 by default, then find the _Installer folder.
    • In _Installer, navigate into the VC folder, then into vc2012Update3, and finally redist.
    • In redist, find both the x86 and x64 versions of VCredist.exe.
    • Run and install both versions, and your game should now launch without error.

Hi, I'm having this annoying problem and I tried solving the problem with the instructions that you gave. 

problem is they don't work for me as I followed these instructions I went into program files/origin games/bf4/installer/vc/vc2012update3/redist

and tried to install both the (x64)  and the (x86) versions but both stop at about 1/3 of the loading bar and this message pops up:

one or more issues caused the setup to fail. Please fix the issues and then retry setup. for more information see the log file

0x80070641- the windows installer service could not be accessed. This can occur if the windows installer is not correctly installed. Contact your support personnel for assistance

what should I do?

P.S.. 

I even picked up Bf4 at my local game store and what do you know I'm still having the same **bleep**ing problem, someone pointed out to me that it could fix the problem but NO after finishing Installing the same old message pops up.............. Well now I think I deserve a refund if nobody can help me with this.
