Dragon Age 2 install error Windows 10

This error message keeps popping up every time I try to install Dragon Age 2 and I'm not very tech savy so I can't make heads or tails of it

Dragon Age 1 downloaded without a problem

My laptop runs on Windows 10. I know space isn't an issue since I still have 808GB free(with DA1 installed)

Update:

Inquisition won't load up either. Same error message

  • HI, please ensure that your Windows is fully up to date, check Windows Update to make sure nothing's missing. 

    If you have everything you can try manually running the relevant packages from the game install folder. 

    If you go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Dragon Age II\__Installer\vc\vc2008sp1AtlUpdate\redist you'll see vcredist_x86.exe. Please try running this then try to launch the game again.
