This is the link that you want (need) as of 6/5/17, choose between the 32bit (x86) or the 64bit (x64) or just install both if you have a 64bit (x64) based system.

Hint: The 32 bit is the most commonly used for app and program development as it will run on both 32bit and 64bit PC's.

You need to install the Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable Update 3 RC from the link supplied in the marked as answer reply to this thread, the 32bit version download and install of the data link library will be the most likely one that you will need, even if you are using a 64bit system, however, if the app that needs the file to run was developed for a 64bit OS only then you will need the 64bit version. You can install both versions on a 64bit system as a 64bit system will run both 32bit and 64bit apps and/or programs.

Here is the link again, for your convenience.

    Well guess what, they are using a Microsoft product, they should expect that it will be a painful experience and nothing will work, or guaranteed to break and cost them pain, frustration and time wasted. The good news is that Microsoft now packages games with Windows, if they work, they can spend their time playing those and sign up to pay Microsoft money for the things Microsoft wants to sell them and forget about their business and actual goals.

    Installing both 32 & 64 bit versions resolved the issue for me. Installing just the 64 bit version didn't
