Solution

  • I finally found solution to fix my problem. I've tried several ways to fix above problem and but nothing work for me.

    As you know, WampServer use some visual c++ redistributable packs to run. And it makes user confuse which version of it should be installed (at least in my case)

    After struggling few hours to fix it, I found good software - check_vcredist which guide wampserver installation easily.

    Before you install WampServer, you'll get all information what you're missing on your laptop now if you run this software. Please follow it's notice. then WampServer will be installed successfully.

    I hope this answer give some help to someone who is stealing his time to install WampServer.
