Hey, try running Origin as admin, and please check that your firewall/ Antivirus aren't interfering with the install process.
Perhaps if they have been created, you can run the DXSETUP file directly from C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Command and Conquer Red Alert 3\__Installer\directx\redist

I just reinstalled my games after a restore and format and was running into this issue. I temporarily disabled the Virus Shield on AVAST 2015 and it worked like a charm. David, you should try to push the AV answer out to all of the EA forums where folks continue to experience this issue. Thanks.

@skr8blazin Thanks for posting your fix, conflicts with Anti-virus software can often be a factor on PC.
Cheers!

Worked like a charm after I messed with my anti-viurs settings. I am also using Avast 2015 and just changed it into silent/gaming mode and that seemed to do the trick for me. Thanks for the idea.
