Hi Vipin,
If your Office version (x86 or x64) you will need to install the same for SharePoint Designer. I know it has not installed but may be worth checking if anything is cached https://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/33469.how-to-clear-your-sharepoint-designer-20102013-cache.aspx.

Hi @Bradley,
Thanks for the Response.
When I was setting up my newly purchased Laptop, SharePoint Designer get installed without any hassle(Guess 32 bit version ,as Office 2016 is 32 bit).But due to some circumstances I reset my Windows 10 Home and I install VS2015 Community,SQL Server 2012 and some more application.After that i tried to install SPD2013 (X32 and X64 both) but get same error for both versions.I tried registry related stuffs and all the solution provided by google but all the time I get same error message.This is really irritating that I still don't have any solution after contacting MicrosoftHelp on Twitter.
I uninstall MS Office 2016 and now I'm trying but the same problem happening again and again.Don't know what I'm missing.
I don't have these files >>>
Close SPD if it is open >>Open My Computer >>Click the address bar >>Paste in: %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WebsiteCache
Delete everything within this location >> Click the address bar >> Paste in: %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Web Server Extensions\Cache >>Delete everything in this location .
Hope for the best!!!
Going to reset my laptop again
