MSVCR100.dll is missing

I am trying to install Apache web server using wamp on a windows 8 pro machine when it is installing I get the following error: "The program can't start because MSVCR100.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program for to fix this problem." I have tried the suggestions on the web to remove Visual C++ redistribution  and reinstall it and that doesn't seem to work.

Where can I get this dll and what directory should it be in? Should I be installing a newer version of the Visual C++ redistribution pack, like the 2012 pack? Should I also install older versions of the redistribution pack one of the articles on the web suggested to remove all the versions of Visual C++ redistribution packs and reinstall them; I only have 2010 pack installed. Almost all of the articles were related to Windows 7 not Windows 8 is there something I should be doing for window 8 Pro

MSVCR100.dll = Visual C++ 2010 Runtime, not the 2012.
