Hi All,

I have started to use Microsoft Visual Studio (Community 2015) in conjunction with Visual Micro and trying to create a new project.
During the naming process, I name it say: test
I get the following msg
Unable to create new sketch
The parameter is incorrect
(Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070057(E_INVALIDARG)
What am I doing wrong?
I would be grateful if you could help
Thank you

Hi,

That's a vs internal error. You just need to install the c++ option for Visual studio.

Install C++ for Visual Studio as follows: -

Control panel>add or remove programs>visual studio>change>custom>c++

Hi Tim,
Thank yo for the prompt reply
There is a bit of difference in that after CHANGE
I get the Visual Studio Community 2015 panel
which offers the following 
MODIFY REPAIR UNINSTALL
The most promising was  MODIFY
and again the most attractive option was
PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES
and the most promising one was Visual C++ there was no C++
Is this the one, I did not proceed
Thank you

With the recent verison of Visual Studio, it's almost impossible to know what "Install C++ for Visual Studio" means as there are multiple packages under different names.

After some messing around, I found out that the package you need to install for visual studio 2017 is called "VC++ 2017 version 15.x v14.x latest". You can find it in the "Individual components" section of the Installer.

update:

Visual Micro has always needed C++ but not a specific version. We had to set a specific version in recent updates because of a Microsoft bug in the latest Vs2017 preview. Thankfully it is a bug and not a design change. Microsoft have since reported the bug will be fixed for the next release.

There is an updated Visual Micro in the gallery 1807.8 which reverts to the previous "use any" c++ platform setting for new projects.

Thanks for the report.

tip: It is recommended to install C++ for VS 2017 as follows:-
