[Jagadesh-Ram]

even am facing this issue any solutions now??

[Javelinl182]

Did installing 'windows-build-tools' work for some of you? Some say you have to try 'npm install -g windows-build-tools'

[Jagadesh-Ram]

@Javelinl182 no i don't see that fixing my issue...as a workaround i just copy the build files to make it work but that is not a valid solution since the npm modules of dependencies might update them after fixing some bugs, so till now i didn't find any proper fix!

here it said cannot open include file allheaders.h now I just want to know that does installing windows-build-tools reconfigure for the header files because I had c++ running before. So how to configure it so that it points to this windows-build-tools libraries?

@zenoscode No, I don't believe so. It just facilitates installation of Microsoft's build tools (and Python). IIUC the project being built still needs to take care of specifying its include paths, ensure that dependent libraries are installed, etc. (perhaps when you had it working previously you were using a different build tools version: 2015, 2017, 2019, ...). If you believe that what you're seeing is a problem caused by windows-build-tools please create a separate issue (the behavior you describe is not related to this issue).
