 The default should be that whatever comes with the compiler should be
 enough, and that installing any separate SDK should be optional.


Agreed, this is how MSVC 2015 worked before the 2017 patch.


 So, if your UCRTVERSION is 10.0.10240.0 (can you verify in
config_host.mk?), then the corresponding msbuild toolset must be
installed. Looks like you have only partially installed SDK 10 on your
machine, so you are on your own.


I have 2 machines that both get this error with the new patch. One of them is a recent, fresh 
install of Win 10 with only MSVC 2013, 2015 and a few development tools.  There is no partially 
installed SDK. It's more likely that the detection logic is confused by Win 10.

Normally we announce something like that on dev ML, or even ask for ESC
decision. So, no, it wasn't intended. Also note, that all TBs have no
problems with verification of MSVC 2017 change.

Most of the TBs are running MSVC 2013 which is not affected by this issue. If they are not, I bet 
they are not running Win 10 or have the SDK installed. I highly doubt there is anything wrong or 
unusual with either of my systems.

Should I update the wiki to say that Win 10 systems now require the SDK for MSVC 2015? Or is this 
something that should be fixed?
