The file is missing and so is C plus plus on my computer. I am trying to install visual studio 2015 but it cannot because it says that vc redist x64.exe is missing.
I found that the best solution was to do a clean install entirely, but i don't want to <Mod Edit> it up because it's a prebuilt. I also do not have a USB drive that is 100 gb in size. How do i do a clean install or are there other solutions to this problem?

You should just have to download and install the redistributable. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=48145

FYI usb only needs to be 8gb for a windows install. I don't know where 100gb came from. A clean install would not fix the issue because you still wouldn't have it installed.
It failed to install, but i fixed it by reinstalling the OS aka factory reset. Windows takes a large amount of space on my C drive and thats why i'm kinda concerned.
