I can't figure out how to install Windows 10 SDK for Visual Studio 2017.
I downloaded and ran the Windows 10 SDK installer, and it displays Please find winsdksetup.exe in ....\Windows kits\10\WindowsSDK to install Windows Software Development Kit - Windows 10.0.17134.12.
When I run winsdksetup.exe, it takes me through the same loop, where it downloads a bunch of executable installers into this directory and show the same exact message.
When I try to build a DirectX project in VS2017, I get the error:
MSB8036 The Windows SDK version 10.0.16299.0 was not found. Install the required version of Windows SDK or change the SDK version in the project property pages or by right-clicking the solution and selecting "Retarget solution".
Do I need to install one of those installers? Which one do I need to run to build and debug DirectX projects for Visual Studio? Specifically to use VS2017 shader debugging functionality.
Thanks,
EDIT:
Under VS2017 - Tools -> Get Tools and Features
I have checked
Game Development with C++
and under Optional I have
C++ Profiling tools
Windows 10 SDK (10.0.17134.0)
I'm downloading 16299.0, this fixed the first error of not having the right SDK.
But now I get the runtime error Failed Creating the Direct3D device when running in Debug. I can still run samples in Release
The error message shows which SDK you need:
The Windows SDK version 10.0.16299.0 was not found
So the SDK for Windows 10 Fall Creators Update 1709 is missing and you downloaded the SDK for April 2018 Update (1803 Build 17134).
Run Visual Studio 2017 installer (C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\Installer\vs_installer.exe), click on modify, and select 16299 SDK under SDK/framework in individual components tab of the installer:
You can download the required Windows SDK versions from Microsoft:
https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/downloads/sdk-archive/
Just install the required version and the build should work.

My Flutter Doctor is saying:
Visual Studio - develop for Windows
X Visual Studio not installed; this is necessary for Windows development.
Download at https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/.
Please install the "Desktop development with C++" workload, including all
of its default components.
How can I fix this problem?
It's basically saying that if you want to develop your Flutter application for Windows you will need to install Visual Studio 2022 and while installing Visual Studio 2022 you will need to download this: Desktop development with C++
Also, you have to install the third link in this: Visual-studio
You could also get desktop development with the C++ tool after installing Visual Studio and then navigating to tool → Get tools and features → Desktop development with C++.
The error means install Visual Studio, and this is different from Visual Studio Code. It's an IDE from Microsoft.
For those who may be using a weak computer and can't afford to install the full Visual Studio, you only need to install a few components from Visual Studio to get Flutter to run on your computer without errors. These components are:
MSVC v142 - Visual Studio 2022 C++ x64/86 build tools.
Windows 10 SDK (for Windows 10 users)
C++ CMake tools for Windows.
In total, they should occupy around 8 GB or so.
As it states, you need to download Visual Studio (which is different from Visual Studio Code).
When installing it, remember to select the required package Desktop development with C++:
This will not prevent you from developing Mobile apps, but it's a requirement only for Windows Development.
Is unnecessary to install the "Desktop development with C++" if you don't want to develop desktop applications for Windows using Flutter.
If you only want to develop mobile apps using Flutter, you can run
flutter config --no-enable-windows-desktop
to disable the desktop support for your Flutter projects. After that, when you run the flutter doctor command again, you will no longer see the warning.

Only two steps are required.
Install Visual Studio 2022 (Link: https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/)
Install Visual Studio Code (Link: https://code.visualstudio.com/)
Your code will run smoothly.
My solution was a bit simpler. Uninstall everything all build system's from VS. Then reinstall Visual Studio Community 2022, restart then try again. Might get a warning about nuget but it should fix the issue.
With the newest android installer "android-studio-2022.1.1.19-windows" there would be a jbr and jre folder existing, hence creating a link from jre to jbr would not work.
What you can do is copy the contents of the items in jbr into the jre folder and this would resolve the error.
Make sure to install Visual Studio Code.
Open the Visual Studio download page:
OS: Windows 10 64bit
Platform: Visual Studio 2019
I'm compiling C++ DLL project.
Although I installed "Windows 10 SDK (10.0.17763)" and "Visual Studio SDK", the visual studio can"t see the SDK.
I try to "Retarget Solution" but there is no list of Windows SDKs.
The WindowsSdkDir, WindowsSdkDir_10 environment variables are empty.
How do I get the Visual Studio 2019 to detect the installation of the Windows SDK and associate it to my project
Usually you can select a specific Windows SDK (exact version) or "newest" SDK in your project properties (right click, properties).
I think your project uses some specific Windows SDK Version which is not installed on your machine. To make your project Windows SDK-version independent you should go to the properties page and select "Windows 10 SDK (newest)" - or similar
I use Android Studio to build native Android projects and I installed the latest version of the Android SDK.
I also use Visual Studio to build Xamarin.Android projects. However when the build process runs in Visual Studio, it uses a previos version of the Build Tools.
I checked the SDK managers and found the following:
Both manager uses the same SDK path (C:\Android\SDK)
The latest Build Tools are installed (v28.0.3 as of time)
Visual Studio can't find the latest version
I already targeted API level 28 but it didn't help
Here you can see side-by-side the managers:
Any ideas how to fix this?
I have a console C++ project which uses Boost and Catch using Visual Studio 2017 Community Edition. It was building fine last night and today it says,
1>C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft.Cpp\v4.0\V140\Platforms\Win32\PlatformToolsets\v140\Toolset.targets(34,5): error MSB8036: The Windows SDK version 7.0 was not found. Install the required version of Windows SDK or change the SDK version in the project property pages or by right-clicking the solution and selecting "Retarget solution".
Specifically, what doe this means?
The Windows SDK version 7.0 was not found. Install the required version of Windows SDK
I repaired Visual Studio and that didn't work so it's not Visual Studio. I can compile other C++ projects.
Web-searches doesn't really find Windows SDK version 7.0, there is Windows SDK for Windows 7.
I'm completely baffled by this error.
I figured it out. Very silly problem.
The second line, "Windows SDK Version" had somehow gotten 7 on it.
I'm doing C++ in Visual Studio 2017, and just recently updated Windows 10 from Anniversary Update to Creator's Update.
I found out by accident that when I'm compiling a DLL project, I would get the error message:
LNK1104 - cannot open file 'kernel32.lib'
After twiddling a bit in the Project Properties, I noticed if the Windows SDK version is set from 10.0.14393.0 to 10.0.15063.0, the error message appears. If I set it back to 10.0.14393.0, I can compile just fine.
I would like to know why when the Windows SDK version is set to the Creator's Update build version, it's throwing this error message, yet it doesn't if set back to the Anniversary Update's build version?
Thanks.

The Windows 10 Creators Update SDK made some significant changes to
what is installed as part of the installation to minimize on-disk
footprint. This is a Known Issue that results from that refactoring
work where the "desktop" components of the Creators Update SDK do not
get installed by default. The previous new project logic always
selected the latest Windows 10 SDK, assuming the desktop portions were
installed as part of that installation scenario. We are working on a
fix for a future update.
The workarounds available are as follows:
Select a version of the Windows 10 SDK that's fully installed on the system (i.e. 10.0.14393.0 or earlier) in the Project Properties
Install the 'Windows 10 SDK (10.0.15063.0) for Desktop' component via the Visual Studio Installer. win10sdk-15063desktop.png

I have the same problem, honestly, looks like a bug in VS 2017. Just switch to 10.0.10586.0.
