Community AdminThank you. Can you navigate to Origin Games\Plants vs. Zombies\Plants vs. Zombies EN\Core and delete both awc.dll & EACore.dll. Then try running the repair again and see if anything changes.
Ok. This time i deleted the files and used repair on Origin as Administrator, but during installation i received a DirectX Error from the EAInstaller. But instead of cancelling the installation, Origin treated as if the game was complete. I tried again and same thing, DirectX error and Origin treating the game as fully installed.

Thanks, what did the error message say? Are you able to set your user account control to always notify, then try again, and see if you receive an option to let Origin make the necessary steps.

This is the error that i received.
But, after i received the error, i uninstalled the game and installed again, which lead to the same error again. After the 3rd try, the game was installed successfully, but still didn't run.
