digitalmars.D.ide - VisualD + VS2017

I just did a fresh install of VisualD, straight from the linked 
site with the installer.

I can make a D project but it won't compile. It says "build 
succeeded" but then if I go to run it, it still says "no file 
exists, build?" So I click "yes" and it then fails to find any 
file.

     "Launch debugger: The program to launch does not exist:
     
C:\Users\[user]\novous\source\repos\WindowsApp4\WindowsApp4\Win32\Debug\WindowsApp4.exe"

Inside WindowsApp4.build.cmd, I ran each line individually from 
command prompt and this line is failing:

      "C:\Program Files (x86)\VisualD\pipedmd.exe" -msmode -deps 
x64\Debug\WindowsApp4.lnkdep link.exe 
 C:\Users\[user]\source\repos\WindowsApp4\WindowsApp4\x64\Debug\WindowsApp4.link.rsp

with the error:

     std.file.FileException std\file.d(3749): x64\Debug: The 
system cannot find the path specified.

Also,

C:\Program Files (x86)\VisualD\pipedmd.exe <---works

WindowsApp4.link.rsp <-- exists from the previous command line.

"x64\Debug\WindowsApp3.lnkdep" <--- I don't have this file. And 
it's also odd to have a relative path like that.

Ignore any typos between "app3" and "app4". I've tried remaking 
the project multiple times now.

Also! In the WindowsApp4.buildlog.html I get:

It is an output file from pipedmd that contains the input files the link 
step depends on.

The wrong linker is called here. Do you have the C++ tools installed 
with VS?

Check the settings in "Options->Tools->Projects and Solutions->Visual D 
Settings->DMD directories->x64": you should probably enable "override 
linker settings from sc.ini" and check the executable paths (VC paths 
before dmd path).
