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.

    Hi Judy,

    You need to install Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable (Update version 3 RC) if it is not already installed on your device. There are two of these, one for 32bit (x86) and one for 64bit (x64). If your device is x86 (32bit), just download and install the x86 version. If you have a x64 based system note that the app that needs this file could be looking for either the x86 or the x64 version of it, depending on which one was used for the development the app itself, most commonly used for development is the x86 (32bit) version as the app will then run on both 32bit and 64bit systems.

    Here is the link that you need, pick one of the versions and if the problem persists then install the other (if you have a 32 bit system and you choose the 64bit version you will/should be notified that it is not compatible with your device).
