Hi,

If vcredist says redistributables are missing, they are missing. Those who are present are not the right version.
Microsoft has the habit of changing redistributable links without warning or putting a link on the correct version.
All "good" VC++ redistributable versions are on
http://wampserver.aviatechno.net in the section Visual C++ Redistribuable Packages
> navigate to the Hosts file and restore the file's original permissions.
Why ?
