Google says this might have something to do with a broken Microsoft Visual C++ install... Try uninstalling it, restarting it and reinstalling it in program manager, if you have issues uninstalling it then grab the msi cleanup utility from http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/MSI-cleanup-utility-3889c8db and use it to uninstall, then restart and reinstall.
