Installation errors: vcredist_x86.exe

Question

Hello,
I have a problem when installing any Adobe CC application from the Creative Cloud panel (e.g. Photoshop, Illustrator). After each installation is completed, I get the following error message:
----------- Payload: Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 Redistributable Package (x86) 11.0.61030.0 {873BE68F-480F-49A6-9649-F98CAB056AFC} -----------
ERROR: Third party payload installer vcredist_x86.exe failed with exit code: -2147024546
ERROR: Failed to install Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 Redistributable Package (x86). Please try installing it by double clicking on the executable at "C:\Users\Joshua\AppData\Local\Temp\{C5FA99EF-6367-4AB6-A547-D1C3E3731FC2}\InDesign_10_LS 20_Win64\Adobe InDesign CC 2014\payloads\Microsoft VC 2012 Redist (x86)\vcredist_x86.exe", or download and install the latest Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 Redistributable Package (x86) from Microsoft website - www.microsoft.com
Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 Restributable Packages were correctly installed before and the Adobe applications work properly. But the installation error is permanently displayed in the CC panel and prevents me from accessing the settings and updates. Does anyone have a solution to this issue?
Thanks in advance.
