If you are using an older operating system, you need to install `.NET Framework 4.5.1` or higher on your computer first.

The solution is to update it. If you use Windows OS older than windows 10 and 8, most probably windows 7. You may need to find the .net framework update selectively, for a quick small update. in update section of windows.

Or try use the offline installer from above link to official windows webpage.
