Windows 10: Microsoft Desktop Runtime not working!

Hello there!I got a new computer in two weeks and has been using it ever since.I've tried installing the Microsoft Windows Desktop Runtime 8.0.204, but as soon as I start the installation, it says, "setup failed" and spits out the code "0x80070652 - another installation is in progress." I've tried everything I can to try to fix it, but nothing is working. Any ideas?Thanks.

:)

 

Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library

Did not work. Runtime Error window still pops up.

Any other suggestions are appreciated...
