If the error message still keeps showing up and you cannot install the DirectX then you need to update the graphic card’s drivers. Moreover, replacing the graphic card with a more powerful one is a better option. According to the experts, the best way to select a graphics card is to analyze your system’s requirements because both underpowered and overpowered graphics cards can be a waste of money.

On the other hand, nowadays you have an option to attach an external hard drive for extra storage. Moreover, you can also use cloud services for extending your memory.

Another possible reason that can cause this issue is your Windows Firewall. The Windows Firewall stops the execution of every application or file that contains or can contain some kind of virus. It is there to save your computer from the virus invasion. Whenever the origin tries to download DirectX files, your Windows Firewall interrupts the download because it thinks of it as a virus. There can be two potential solutions to this problem:
- You should whitelist the DirectX files folder on your system. So that whenever your system attempts to download it the Windows Firewall should not interrupt it.
- If Origin fails to download the DirectX files then you should download them manually.
