How did you actually manage to do that? i am having the exact same errors, and running in admin didn’t fix it…

I don’t exactly know what you mean by “inherit from parent”

It’s pretty easy, you just need go to project property, select VC++ directory and in droplist select inherit path form parent.

What was the step by step solution? i can’t really get what you mean.

With this ‘workaround’ I can compile my project from Visual Studio. However I can’t compile in the editor, I can’t package my games for android. UE can’t find window.h and new. I couldn’t find any proper solution on the internet. How can I fix this?
