Automatic configuration of the current version of Microsoft Access has failed

So I tried to start Microsoft Access 2013 on my PC for the first time (I never used it on this computer) and it came up with this message: “Automatic configuration of the current version of Microsoft Access has failed. Your database might not function correctly. This can occur if you do not have the necessary permissions to install Microsoft Access on this computer.” I fiddled around with it but it seems like the only way to fix it is by re-installing Microsoft Office..
