None of answers in google worked for me . This is how I solved my problem :

According to Wampserver forum you must install ALL versions of Microsoft Visual C/C++ Redistributable(2008 , 2010 , 2012 , 2013 , 2015 , 2017 ... ) . So you have to download them one by one and then install all of them (Not just one/latest ) .

I've already packed them here (x86) http://files.drax.ir/wampserver/vcredist_x86_Allversions.zip and here (x64): http://files.drax.ir/wampserver/vcredist_x64_Allversions.zip. Just download and extract them then install all distributions at once then restart your Windows and run Wampserver.

Alternatively, you could download the full package from Microsoft's official page: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads

That's it!
