Windows 10 can skip secondary installs in the name of security. Please manually run the following installers and post your results here. Note: do not skip one of the dxsetup installs, they are not the same.

C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Need For Speed(TM) Hot Pursuit\__Installer\DISK1\DirectX\DXSETUP.exe

C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Need For Speed(TM) Hot Pursuit\__Installer\directx\redist\DXSETUP.exe

C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Need For Speed(TM) Hot Pursuit\__Installer\vc\vc2008sp1\redist\vcredist_x64.exe

Hi Barry,

I repaired my X86/X64 Visual C++ installations.  I also ran DXSETUP.exe at path "Origin\Need for Speed Hot Pursuit\__Installer\directx\redist".  I should point out that I don't have a "DISK1" directory at path "Origin\Need for Speed Hot Pursuit\__Installer".  However, I found a directory with that same name at path "Origin\Crysis 2\__Installer" that contained a different version of DirectX, which I installed.  NFS HP still doesn't work.
