How do I get visual studio 2017 to work with Unreal Enigne?

Hey @JakeDaLizard,

In your Visual Studio 2017 setup, ensure that the boxes:

  • Desktop development with C++,
  • .NET desktop development
  • and Game development with C++

are checked.

Oh, also, check the Windows 10 SDK (10.0.XXXXX.0) for Desktop [x86 and x64] and for UWP in the Components.
