Re: Failed to install GDF

Hi, in looking into this I was asked if I could get a sample of someone who was affected by this so that we have more to work with. Before taking any other steps, would you be able to take an export of your registry, stick it in a Zip file and PM it to me.

Then I'd like to try some basic steps, more to cross them off the list. Can you restart your machine with a Clean Boot, start Origin as admin, and change the install location to a different drive, and see if you get the same issue.

Edit: I notice you have double "\"s in your listed filepaths. It should look more like this: http://s14.postimg.org/sbag6y041/regedit.jpg

You want a complete dump of my hole registry? It is a 256 mb file. I can do that, just need to be sure that is what you want
I've tried restarting the machine, both normally and in fail safe mode (just to be sure that nothing interfered with it) and running Origin as Admin. This has not changed anything.
I have also tried to move the installation to another harddrive, as someon said they have had problems with it on their SSD drive, which was what mine was installed on before, now on a mormal harddrive, but this has not helped either.
And as for the filepath, this is how it is written inside reg file, for windows to understand the syntax (escape strings). When it is actually inserted into the registry only one "\" is used

It should be compressible to a much smaller file, which is what i'd be looking for. We can unpack this to its full size.

It'd probably we worth including the install log found at C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Titanfall\__Installer

Thanks for trying the steps and clearing the double slash thing up.
