MySql 5.7 installer fails to detect VS 2013 redistributable

Question

Trying to install the latest version of MySQL Server - 5.7.19 - on a clean Windows server machine using the MySql installer MSI package.

On first attempt it told me

Answer 1

I had a similar issue while installing MySQL 5.7.19 where I was installing the x64 version of visual C++ redistributable and it refused to work. Eventually was able to get around it in a similar way to Prabhat, but installed the x86 version instead. Working so far.

Would have commented this on Prabhat's answer, but reputation restrictions.
