[Old Report] PvZ Garden Warfare 2 crashing

I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get PvZ Garden Warfare 2 to work. I have 4 computers of which 3 are desktops on is a laptop. Everything is up-to-date. I had the exact same problems with my Sims 4 game that was never resolved- but at least that still works on my desktop. Am I the only one having this problem. The computers are all less than a year old all running Windows 7, with no bugs, problems or viruses/malware. I am wary to chat with another advisor about a game not working because I contacted them several times over several weeks about my Sims 4 and the only things that it resulted in was gaining several new issues with the rest of my computer because of them- like having a windows desktop manager error every time I started my computer. Hopefully someone here has had something work.  I have attached the crash report.

    Quite often secondary installs that should happen during the game setup are blocked by Windows. Please manually run the following installer, reboot when that is done and let us know if the issue is resolved please:

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Plants vs Zombies Garden Warfare 2\__Installer\vc\vc2012Update3\redist\vcredist_x64.exe

    Hey Everyone

    As this thread is a bit old at this point, things have changed and been updated, we are going to lock this down so that we can prevent any necro-posting.

    If you run into any further issues with GW2 specifically crashing, errors, or anything performance related, post your info Here!

    Cheers!
