Hello. I have a problem with my Windows SDKs and UE4. I have been trying to fix it myself for several hours now… I cant compile any C++ UE4 projects (even empty ones), because im supposingly missing windows.h (im on windows btw). But if i try to make a new empty console application C++ project using visual studio (2017) and include windows.h it works… I can even look at windows.h itself. I have tried installing all the windows SDKs and C++ runtimes i could find (Windows 10 AND 8). I have tried restarting my Computer several times. I had this issue before. I installed like ALL the SDKs and then it just worked. Now reinstalled windows and i cant get it to work.
im getting the error
D:\UE_4.19\Engine\Source\Runtime\Core\Resources\Windows\ModuleVersionResource.rc.inl(3): fatal error RC1015: cannot open include file 'windows.h'.
if i try to compile any project.
this is my whole compile log:

I have reinstalled Unreal Engine and visual studio (2015 and 2017) several times and tried both visual studio versions. I generated new project files and visual studio solutions every time.
