I'm trying to compile a visual studio C++ project and I can't get anywhere because of the compiler reporting "Cannot open include file: 'excpt.h': No such file or directory". The problem has been reported numerous times on the Internet but I can't find any help regarding my particular situation. The problem is not that the include path of the project are not correctly setup, the problem is that this include file (and probably a bunch of other files) are just missing from my computer. There is no such file on my hard drive. So I tried installing Windows SDK 7.1. The file is not inside the installed SDK (although it should be). I tried repairing the install, uninstall it, reinstall it... all numerous time. I also try to install, repair, uninstall, reinstall Visual Studio 2010 professional numerous time, with and without the Windows SDK installed. I even tried uninstalling the professional version to install the express VC++... nothing seems to work, no 'excpt.h' never get installed on my computer. I am clueless... someone has a hint of a solution? I'm on Windows 7.
As supplementary information, note that 'excpt.h' is included in by "windows.h". Also, the "excpt.h" file is normally installed with the Windows SDK under a path like "c:program files (x86)microsoft sdkswindowsv7.1include" and with Visual Studio under a path like "C:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 10.0VCinclude".
EDIT: If it might help, I might add that the folder C:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 10.0VCinclude related my Visual Studio install has only two files... which is certainly not normal!!! However, I can't find any ways to get the installer to install all the .h files that should appear in this repertory.
