    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.

The same here from Berlin. Windows 10 64 bit, EA Desktop App reports "Something went wrong" during installation. No tip here helps. Not even repairing the MS Visual C++ installations. And going back to Origin is not possible. Can't understand how EA forces their game buyers to use this new app first and then doesn't work on solving the problems. Outrageous.

@Pankow_Berlin Ea have sadly been one of the solid jokes in the gaming world for years, When i did finally get a response from them it wasn't even relevant to anything i had sent them. Just shows you, Admins don't seem to mind, Ea don't seem to mind so yeah, I'll have to sort it with my card issuer to get the money back.
