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 #### 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 only need a 4GB USB drive...
