Windows SDK 7.1 won't install over Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable 10.0.40219

I'm trying to install the 64-bit compiler from the Windows SDK 7.1. ?But the install fails with an unhelpful (empty) error message. ?I've tried various fixes suggested in various online forums, and I think I've narrowed it down to the issue described in another post (thread?6e6c8a17-1666-42fa-9b5b-dfc21845d2f9). ?It?suggests that the trouble is likely that there are C++ redistributable packages already installed that are more recent than the version in the SDK, and it therefore won't install over them. ?Unfortunately, I cannot seem to uninstall the redistributables: ?there is no uninstall option on them in Programs and Features, probably because they were put there as part of the installation of some other program. ?I don't know which one(s), and haven't been able to figure it out. ?I can't just go removing programs at random, so I don't think removal is going to work for me.

Is there any way to get the compiler installed without removing those redistributables? Is Microsoft planning to release an updated SDK any time soon?

I'm running Windows 7 Enterprise SP1, 64bit.
