@AshelyKing Please make sure you're not running Origin in compatibility mode—that's a common cause of this error.
Otherwise, clear Origin's cache and uninstall it "the hard way." The regular uninstall doesn't remove all Origin-related files from your computer, but these steps should.

Download the full installer, not the ThinSetup, and run it as an admin: right-click on the download and select "Run as administrator." This is the direct download link:
http://download.dm.origin.com/origin/live/OriginSetup.exe
Once you've installed Origin, run it as an admin too. If you get an error, please take a screenshot and attach it to a post.
it says " the application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b)
@AshelyKing Start by running a couple of checks on your Windows system files. Here's how:
- Hit Windows key-X
- Choose either “PowerShell (Administrator)” or “Command prompt (Administrator),” whichever option is offered
- Inside the window that appears, copy and paste “DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth” without quotes into the window, and enter
- The system will start validating soon. If it throws an error, please list it here
- After it reaches 100%, hit Windows key-X again
- Again, choose “PowerShell (Administrator)” or “Command prompt (Administrator)”
- Inside the window, copy and paste “sfc /scannow” without quotes into the window, and enter
- Post the message you receive here
If that doesn't help, download the all in one runtimes from here:
https://www.sereby.org/site/All%20in%20One%20Runtimes&lang=en
Start with the VC++ runtimes and .NET 4.8. (You can skip the Silverlight and Shockwave components entirely.)
what do i do after i download the aio-runtimes and extract it and then run the application?
