Hello. That's the first time anyone reported that, strange.

It looks like you already have it installed, but it's an older version maybe? Just uninstall the one you have and install this one. It says so in the details right there.

Give it a try and let me know if it works.

still doesnt work

did you find a workaround?

Hey. Yeah, no, I have no idea what's causing it. When I build the game, I specifically tick the option to include the required prerequisite installers as well. So I don't know.. You're one of like maybe 2 or 3 people that have had this issue, out of tens of thousands, so I have no idea. Sorry.

same error message here, you are not the only one :) , the problem persists even after I installed the latest VS C++ environment software package. 

by the way, I then played another Ureal Engine based game, it also prompted same error message but the good thing is the game files already have the required VS C++ installer so it just started installing it and then try downloading something else that is also required, after everything is done, I can play that game! maybe this can help?

Same here
