I’m trying to compile an old project using VS express 2010 but I get this error:

fatal error RC1015: cannot open include file ‘afxres.h’. from this code

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

I have installed Windows SDK already, but without any success.

• Hi,

  thanks for posting here.

  >>VS 2017 .RC file — Error RC1015 cannot open include file ‘afxres.h’

  For this case, I suggest you check if you have installed vc++ feature especially the MFC support with vs2017.

  

  If not, please modify your vs2017 and add these features.

  Hope this could be help of you.

  Best Regards,
  Sera Yu

• Solved and in case if anybody is interested:

  After Microsoft Platform SDK is installed its /include folder consists subfolder /mfc. All necessary files seem to be there. Microsoft’s instruction: «Using Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition with the Microsoft Platform SDK» explains that following line: «C:Program FilesMicrosoft Platform SDKinclude» must be added to «the Visual C++ directories in the Projects and Solutions section in the Options dialog box». But does not say anything about line: «C:Program FilesMicrosoft Platform SDKincludemfc». Add it as well what, hopefully, will solve problems.
