Error: The VC++ runtime redistributable package was not installed successfully. Setup cannot continue. (-2147024891)

Installation slows to a stop at 20% then jumps to 27% and stops with this error:

"Error: The VC++ runtime redistributable package was not installed successfully. Setup cannot continue. (-2147024891)"

I've tried multiple things... downloaded and installed the C++ files (vcredist_64).   I also redownloaded the game/Origin serveral times (Also in SafeMode with networking).  If anyone can fix this problem please help!

    • 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.

    hello hello, i tried that. However, it didnt work what ea_barry said. When i tried to install it just didnt proceed. Ill give u a solution 🙂. I have installed the bf3 and bf4, both have the same folder vcredist. So i replaced my bf4 files of vcredist with the bf3, i proceeded with the installation and everything was perfect. If you dont have 2 battlefields to replace the files, here is a link i posted my self for you to replace. It worked 100% for me.

    • Uninstall both then reinstall both should work fine the next time!

    You replaced them in the middle of downloading? Because my issue is when it just installs right after it downloads the core files
