Description
I have a fresh new computer (just a couple months) so I just have the newest stuff (I dont know if the problem can come from this).
I had on problem at npm install, it was saying Could not load the Visual C++ component "VCBuild.exe".. So I did a search and I found more than one solution, but the better is this one, wich in my case I have VS2017.
But I still get some errors, and I dont know if it's normal

Research direction
Start by reproducing npm install on Windows using the reported Node v7.5.0, node-gyp v3.5.0, Visual Studio 2017, and the utp-native dependency. Read the displayed node-gyp and MSVSVersion traceback; done means the project installs without the reported VCBuild.exe or Visual Studio version error.
