    [~jlongton] I am still unable to reproduce this. I saw similar issue on the [developer forum](https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/content/problem/135719/build-full-database-file-for-solution-fails-for-st.html) which suggests to update Visual Studio...Would you try to update Visual Studio 2017 to the latest state just in case? (Go to Control Panel -> All Control Panel Items -> Programs and Features -> Select "Visual Studio Community 2017" -> Change)

    [~kiguchi] I tried the update and still got the same error, I then completely removed visual studio from my machine and reinstalled from scratch but I still see the error.
  3. Kota Iguchi 2018-06-25

    [~eharris] Any ideas on this?
  4. Ewan Harris 2018-06-26

    [~kiguchi] Nothing I can shed any light on sorry :/, I'm reinstalling Windows soon so I'll aim to get it done ASAP and then hopefully see if I run into this issue

    [~jlongton] Could you try listing what VS compoenents are installed on your machine. - Install [vssetup](https://github.com/Microsoft/vssetup.powershell) by opening powershell (maybe in administrator) and run Install-Module VSSetup -Scope CurrentUser - Run the below command to list all the things you have installed 
       Get-VSSetupInstance -All -Prerelease | Select-Object -Expand packages @{l='Name'; e={if ($nn = $_.properties['Nickname']) { '{0} ({1})' -f $_.DisplayName, $nn} else { $_.DisplayName}}} | Where-Object type -in 'workload', 'component' | Sort-Object Name, @{e='Type'; desc=$true}, Id | Format-Table -Group Name -Property Type, Id

    Took Josh's installed components and built a install config from it, able to reproduce the error. Attempting to work backwards to figure out what the cause is. Attached the config, to use it download the VS 2017 installer and then run it from command line with --in <path_to_config> so like C:\Users\awam\Downloads\vs_community__733517741.1530097118.exe --in C:\Users\awam\Desktop\config.json
  8. Ewan Harris 2018-07-09

    Removed the following packages and wp-device builds started working again 
       Component Microsoft.VisualStudio.Component.Windows10SDK.15063.Desktop
   Component Microsoft.VisualStudio.Component.Windows10SDK.15063.UWP
   Component Microsoft.VisualStudio.Component.Windows10SDK.15063.UWP.Native
    Even though Josh has newer SDK, because of the check [here](https://github.com/appcelerator/titanium_mobile_windows/blob/9eb09da5eec1d3ab35419d30cbf05352e422c768/cli/commands/_build/generate.js#L158-L164), and our minimum sdk stated [here](https://github.com/appcelerator/titanium_mobile_windows/blob/9eb09da5eec1d3ab35419d30cbf05352e422c768/package.json#L29), 15063 is always getting selected. 15063 was fairly heavily tested when it was released due to the VS2015 incompatibility bugs we fixed see (TIMOB-25031 and related tickets). I'm unsure as to why it is now suddenly breaking, it could be due to incompatibilities with newer tooling? I'm currently uninstalling the newer SDKs and seeing if that fixes anything. I think we definitely need to upgrade the min supported versions

    I just got my PC clean-installed with VS 2017, and now I am able to reproduce this issue. I can see that 15063 sdk is selected even when I should have newer versions. I'll try to upgrade min supported versions.

    *Closing ticket.* The fix is present in SDK: {noformat} 7.3.0.v20180711185043 {noformat} Thanks [~kiguchi]
