igoproxy64.exe System Error - MSVCP120.dll is missing

Specs:

Windows 10 (clean install on new SSD, last week)

GTX970 FTW

AMD FX8350

Origin did an auto update, when I clicked to open it today. Signed in, after the Sign-in prompt finally loaded, and I got a system error, saying the MSVCP120.dll was missing. Not that it matters, but everything had been working beautifully, since I had installed Windows 10 and Origin, last week. This is a brand new build, and currently has only Windows 10, Origin and DA:Inquisition installed.

Normally I would not state the following, but I will not mess around in the registry, so please no instructions that include those as required steps. This is my second time reinstalling everything on this new build, because the original HDD I installed, turned out to be a lemon. Bought an SSD (and a new backup HDD) and basically started from scratch.

Any help or fixes from Origin, would be appreciated.

Thanks.

    If you know that you have one to download 🙂 then download .

    If you don't know for sure what you are doing 😉 then download all of them , because it installs only the one that you don't have🙂

    Now you understand why I told you to do so ?! 😇 I am here as they help you out if I can , and not to get confused.

    Okay. If I could get a bit more information, that would be appreciated. Your instructions say "choose the one you don't have". From what list, exactly?

    So while waiting, I looked around my Origin folder, and saw near the bottom of the main folder: vcredist_x64 and vcredist_x86. When I then clicked on the "Download" button, from the Microsoft.com link that you posted, it appears that the three files that are listed are the two mentioned above, and one called: vcredist_arm.exe.

    Am I meant to just download and install vcredist_arm.exe then?

    @coldwentn0se  hmmm...🤔

    vcredist_arm.exe / vcredist_x64.exe / vcredist_x86.exe🤨 Just in case , download all of them and install.

    Wait, what? Even though I just showed that I have the x64 and x86 executables, you are telling me I should download all three? So I shouldn't just pick the one that is missing (the vcredist_arm.exe)? Any idea why?

    I tried to download just the one that was missing from the Origin folder (the vcredist_arm.exe), but when it tried to install it said it cannot run on my platform (Windows 10).

    I ended up marking all of them for download, and did a repair on the x86 (since install wasn't an option). The x64 - even though it was listed as installed in the Origin folder - did give me the option to "Install", which I did. The vcredist_arm.exe though, still won't install for Windows 10.

    HOWEVER, it did end up solving my problem.

    @yahel_1 I will mark your post for "Solution", but I might suggest that you  add info regarding the .exe that doesn't work on Windows 10 (since some one else may see what I did), and that people should just set to download all of them, instead of choose from the list.

    Thank you for your help.

    this worked for me, i had the missing MSVCP120.dll error. i just downloaded all three. two didnt want to be installed the third file allowed itself to install and that fixed the issue. when the other two told me they didnt need to be installed i just closed them out. after the 3rd one installed, i rebooted, everything works. thanks for posting this fix
