    Hi, I am Dave, I will help you with this.

    Click the link below, on that page is a multi-installer for the Visual C++ 2015 - 2022 redistributables.

    Please Note, regardless of whether your version of Windows 10 is 32bit or 64bit, you must download and install both the x86 and x64 versions, do not try to install the ARM64 version:

    Then, restart (not shut down) your PC.
