I had the same issue and the following worked for me: I checked all the "Microsoft Visual C++..." under "Apps" and choosed "Repair" where it was available. I restarted my computer and then the installation went just fine.
So I Removed Origin since I was having issues connecting to the game server. Figured its time I try the EA app. So it will not install. So i cant play apex anymore.
I tried to find the Origin client for download no luck so far. I have no Idea what is causing this.
Why did they want to mess with Origin client, when that was working? It looked better too. If its not broken why fix it? Now it seems really broken.
Community ManagerWhat I did was go back to the Origin Client. that works. Also changed to google dns numbers. but still the EA thing did not work. Origin does.
Community ManagerI tried out every fix i found and nothing worked, then i tried just using origin again but it forces me to install the ea app which is broken? I know you dont have anything to do with this but why bring out a app which is broken and then force players to switch from a working app to a broken app.
Where did you find the original Origins client?
I DID THAT TOO. NOTHING
So my issue is similar to what is going on in this topic thread, but it differs in error code and probably ways to fix it. The app was crashing moments after I would try to open it, so I uninstalled and reinstalled to try and fix it. But then it wouldn't get through the installation, giving me an error code "62-9A72" that no one seems to have run into before. I've tried clearing the cache, making sure the firewall wasn't blocking it, ran the installer as admin, and ran the program in compatibility mode for Windows 8. Sadly, nothing has worked and I keep getting the prompt with the error code almost immediately after trying to run the app installer. Any help that leads to resolving the issue would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
