From the error, it sounds like it’s specifically referring to missing C++ installation files. Are you certain you selected C++ support when you installed Visual Studio? It doesn’t seem to do this by default.

Hello
thanks for your reply.
when I install vs2017, I select C++ desktop development and C++ game development.

Oh I find the cause, after I remove all VS redistribution it works.
