@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?
@AshelyKing You install the VC++ runtimes and .NET 4.8 (although it's fine if you get an error saying it's already installed). Then try to open Origin. If it doesn't work, uninstall Origin, reinstall, and test again.
i'm sorry but how do I download it?
@AshelyKing Sorry, the download link:
