    Well, after some frustration, it is fixed. Somehow, my anti-malware scanner blocked it, while it hasn't had any trouble installing other expansions. Turned it off and it worked. Nevertheless, thanks for your help.

Try starting Origin as administrator before installing.

    Great to hear.

    I'm accepting your post as solution so it can help others.

    What Anti Malware are you using ? Was it running a scan at the time ?
