I did some before and after testing and determined that in my case something about the video editor (VSDC) breaks the Origin 'anti-cheat' software. Or VSDC is malware or something?

If you use something like REVO-Uninstaller before you install vsdc, then you can roll-back. Otherwise, I had to restore from a backup.
I've reached out to VSDC and if they share anything useful, I will come back here to share.

I finally was able to fix my issue. I installed both the 32 bit and 64 bit version of Visual C++ Then, since I purchased through Epic Games, allowed the Epic Games launcher install the Origin Client. After that the game worked. Hope that helps someone
Thanks for sharing. What is Vscript? I don't find it in when I windows key /start / search. Wondering if it's related to my issue with VSDC..
Thanks!
Apologies. I meant Visual C++. I updated my reply.
