Unreal Engine 4.10 is not creating c++ project


Hello I wanted to create a project in UE4.10 with basic c++ code. But when it comes to create it, UE gives me an error:

The project could not be compiled. Would you like to open it in Visual Studio? Running E:/Program Files (x86)/Epic Games/4.10/Engine/Binaries/DotNET/UnrealBuildTool.exe MyProject Development Win64 -project="C:/Users/allst/Documents/Unreal Projects/MyProject/MyProject.uproject" -rocket -editorrecompile -progress -noubtmakefiles -2015 @progress push 5% Parsing headers for MyProjectEditor Running UnrealHeaderTool "C:/Users/allst/Documents/Unreal Projects/MyProject/MyProject.uproject" "C:\Users\allst\Documents\Unreal Projects\MyProject\Intermediate\Build\Win64\MyProjectEditor\Development\UnrealHeaderTool.manifest" -LogCmds="loginit warning, logexit warning, logdatabase error" -rocket -installed Reflection code generated for MyProjectEditor in 17,8672852 seconds @progress pop Performing 7 actions (2 in parallel) [2/7] Resource PCLaunch.rc E:\Program Files (x86)\Epic Games\4.10\Engine\Source\Runtime\Launch\Resources\Windows\PCLaunch.rc(10) : fatal error RC1015: cannot open include file 'windows.h'.

I had VS 2013 pro, but I was asked to install VS 2015 community, what I have done, but problem is still persisting. Have you any ideas what should be done now? I will be gratefull for any advice. Have a nice day!


Solution

  • Please verify that "Common Tools for Visual C++ 2015" was selected when installing Visual Studio 2015. It will not automatically install, you need to do a custom install for that.
