Titanfall 2 WILL NOT install due to Directx error with xactengine2_1.dll

Problem: Titanfall 2 trial would NEVER install for me, it would download to 42%, try to install, then give me a directx error (photo will be attached), and then installation stops and all Origin does...

Hello @Goiphan 

I am really sorry for all those troubles, installing Titanfall 2. It seems like you`ve been through a lot of troubleshooting. Can you try to load your system with Clean Boot and install the game? 

Cheers,

Archi

    In clean boot, I tried two things: run Origin as admin and try to install game, and it gave me a general Directx error and cancelled the install. I rebooted in clean boot again this time tried manually running the dxsetup.exe as admin and it gave me the same xactengine2_1.dll error again. So no luck with either of those.

      Hello @Goiphan

      Thank you for reporting back. Have you tried to install any other game from Origin? Restarted your router?

        Other games on Origin will install just fine (Mirror's Edge Catalyst for example). I restarted my router and that didn't change anything.
