Dead rising 2 "Activation Context generation failed." error

[Jay 2Chingy]

i get the error message "The application has failed to start because the side-by-side configuration is incorrect" or something along those lines.
i ran sxstrace.exe and it said "Activation Context generation failed."
i've tried everything to fix this such as reinstalling the game
reinstalling directX and microsoft C++
And doing something in regedit (no clue what it was)
i literally bought the game an hour or 2 ago and been trying to fix the issue but nothing is helping on google so i resulted to the forums
