Whenever I try to install the game through Origin on Windows 10 x64 I receive the following error:
Error: A redistributable package (D3D11Install.exe) was not installed successfully. Setup cannot continue. (false)
I have tried all of the existing suggested fixes (compatibility mode, running as administrator etc etc) and they do not work.
Has anyone managed to work around this issue recently (2020)?
Didn't get any issue when I installed.
The contents of InstallLog.txt show an error (error code 193) launching D3D11Install.exe. This file exists in the correct location, but will not execute manually.
As the DX Installation is attempted before the game is installed, the game installation never takes place.
The download completes, so the NFS13 binary is in place. However, running it manually does very little - the executable runs for a few seconds then terminates with nothing displayed on screen.
I have tried running dxsetup.exe manually (as an admin), which works but does not solve the problem. I have followed instructions elsewhere on this forum suggesting changing the compatibility level for d3d11install.exe and running it as an admin and these also do not work.
