Hi,
The issue i’m having is that whenever I attempt to make a new C++ class and or try to start a new project in C++ I get the following error:
“The project could not be compiled. Would you like to open it in Visual Studio?
Running D:/UnrealEngine/UE_4.17/Engine/Binaries/DotNET/UnrealBuildTool.exe CPP Development Win64 -project=“D:/UnrealEngine/Projects/CPP/CPP.uproject” -editorrecompile -progress -NoHotReloadFromIDE

@progress pop
ERROR: Windows SDK v8.1 must be installed in order to build this target.”
I’m Currently using Unreal Engine from the launcher version 4.17.1 with Visual Studio Community 2017 on windows 10 with SDK 8.1 and 10 installed. I only have the one version of Visual Studio’s installed and I did check my envirmomental system variables and didnt see one for VS pointing to tools, so i made one called VS150COMNTOOLS to point to
“D:\Visual Studio\Common7\Tools”
But it didn’t seem to help.
