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

I have the exact same problem as the topic creator. When I navigate to ProgramFiles (x86)\Origin Games, there are no subfolders. I find this weird because I do have other games installed and I've tried to install BF4 but to no avail. Any ideas?

Head to the Battlefield 4 installation folder, C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Battlefield 4 by default, then find the _Installerfolder.
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.
Uninstall both then reinstall both should work fine the next time!
