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 Mossy,
I' not sure which link you are referring to in your reply but here is the link to download and install Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable. There is an advertisement for product at the very top of the page, scroll down for the download and instructions. This is the software that the app needs to use to function. Most apps are compiled for 32bit (x86) systems as they will also run on 64bit systems but not visa-versa. So, start with the 32 bit version, if you then still receive the VCRuntime140.dll missing error and you are using an x64 based device, then install the x64 version as the app itself would/should be a 64bit app. Both versions can be installed on an x64 based devise, (I have both on mine as I have some 64bit apps installed as well as 32bit).
I just used this link and it is active, (I'm in the US).
