Unable to install MS SQL Server or SSMS due to missing DLL, how do I find and install this DLL?

I have the exact issue as the OP of this question but their fix did not work for me:

I need to install MS SQL Server and SQL Server Management Studio on my computer. No matter what I try to install (SQL Server, SSMS, SQL Server 2012 Native Client) I get an error saying that it is missing a DLL.

This seems to be the relevant part of the log file. The percent complete starts counting down after all this as it removes everything it just installed.

From searching around online, I have found the missing DLL is sqlncli11.dll which should be in the C:\Windows\System32 folder (maybe SysWOW64 for 64 bit?). The problem is that I have no idea how to replace this missing DLL. I have not been able to find where to download it on the Microsoft website and I'm not about to download it from some other sketchy site. I thought it would come as part of the SQL Server 2012 Native Client but that had the same error while trying to install.

I have tried every other fix I have been able to find except reinstalling Windows and editing my registry, which both seem like nuclear options.
