EA App won't install
Hello, I'm trying to play The Sims 3 but EA wants to install the new EA App. But the installer keeps encountering an error and the App won't finish installing. Every time I try to play the game it sends me back to the install page in Origin. The App installer can't seem to find a file it's looking for. The file is: Microsoft Visual C++ and the error message says: "The feature you are trying to use is on a network that is unavailable". So now I can't play The Sims 3 or install the new App.
Can someone help me with this please?
Thank-you.
Then I would recommend a Windows repair installation, also called a in-place upgrade.
Here you will find an Microsoft Video Guide about it.Here is the Website to create the Install medium.
This is normally a very safe process, but you should make a full backup of all your important data anyway. (And not just before such on operation.) 😉Make sure that "Keep Personal files and Apps" is marked before you click "install".
I can't guaranty you that this will help, this could also be a hardware error, but neither @puzzlezaddict nor I have any way to be sure about that.
If you are unsure about a step, ask! 😉
