Solution : Install the softeware using administrator account or using "Run as Administrator" option by right click on setup (Windows 7 onwards) .

If still this problem encounters after running the installation from administrator mode, one possible cause of this problem is that the Microsoft Visual C++ redistributables the application requires did not execute and install properly during installation of the Statistics application.
