Not a duplicate, this is on a different OS, though similar issue. – rassa45 Oct 04 '16 at 18:33

On Windows, some SDK tools such as mksdcard.exe
require Microsoft Visual C++ runtime 2015-2019. Some download links can be found here.

According to Subaru answer,some SDK tools such as mksdcard.exe require Microsoft Visual C++ runtime. So go to your System properties and check your System type:
Then based on your system type,(for me it was x64) download/update the latest Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2019 from the link https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/
After installing Microsoft Visual C++, my problem was fixed. All the best.

Just go to https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/ click on other tools and framework then locate Microsoft visual c++ redistributable for visual studio 2019 and download
