Instead, you should be downloading the 'installer' for the particular Buddy bot. You can find the installers here:

Buddy Downloads​

The 'installer' will identify any missing, or out-of-date dependencies, and install them for you.

• Your Windows must be completely patched for the installer to work.
  Run Windows Update, and keep running it, until there are no more patches to apply. This may require rebooting your machine several times.
  For example, Win7 must have SP1 installed and all subsequent patch updates.
  
  
• You must run the installer with Windows 'administrator' privileges.
  
  Right-click on the installer → "Run as administrator"​
  
  
• The installer must be an exception to your AntiVirus.
  
  
• The directory in which you install the Buddy bot must be an exception to your AntiVirus.
