I\'ve looked everywhere online, but it doesn\'t look like anyone has been able to resolve this issue.

Answer 1

I have been in the same situation and I resolved this problems following the next steps:

Using Windows

1. Open Control Panel.
2. Select Install and uninstall programs
3. Find Visual C++ Redistributable 2015.
4. Select it, Wait for the dialog box, and choose Repair
5. Later, reapeat the same step, in (x86) version.

Remember, Apply this only 2015 version.
