    • 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.

    Then the problem isn't Battlefield, the problem is the software on your PC. 

    If the new installation of VCREDIST didn't fix it, try a new installation of Windows to fix it.

    if either of your 64x or 86x work manually copy the working one and paste it back in the same folder then rename it to replace the none working package, or download and replace the ones in the folder just make sure the names are exact or it wont install, once this is done the vc++ error will no longer pop up, then verify and repair the game then retry installing your redist, if that don't work try taking out webhelper86x but don't delete it
