As @EA_Barry mentioned the install process of the VC++ 2005 package ends without any message about success.
Go to your ">drive<:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Mass Effect 3\__Installer\vc\vc2008sp1\redist" folder and run both the "vcredist_x64.exe" and the "vcredist_x86.exe" as administrator > Reboot > test.
If the error persists, go here and here and download both VC++ packages (x86 and x64) for Visual C++ 2008.
Deinstall all "Microsoft Visual C++ 2008" installations from the Windows Control panel "Programs and features" > reboot
Then install both (x86 and x64) versions you downloaded. (Run the installer as Admin) > reboot > test.
If that still don't works, deactivate the cloud save feature for ME3.
Close Origin completely.
Then move the "Mass Effect 3" folder from your "Documents/Bioware" folder to your Desktop > test the game.

If have not yet done so, right click the game in Origin and then Repair the game. Let that process finish and then retest.
