We have been using Visual Studio 2015 at our company for a number of years now. Up until yesterday (10th October 2018) we had no significant problems. However, all of a sudden and at around the same time many of us have experienced problems; applications that used to build now fail (even though there has been no source changes) and the ability even to build completely new out-of-the-template Visual Studio applications has broken. We are running on either Windows 7 or Windows 10 machines. My "Help About" reports as follows:

A very simple case on how to reproduce the problem is as follows:

  1. Launch Visual Studio 2015.
  2. Create a new MFC Application (in the MFC Application Wizard, tick the option to make a Dialog based application).
  3. Build the brand new application (without making any other changes).

Historically this has worked fine, up until yesterday! Now we get the following build error:

This is causing us massive problems; not only can we not build on our local development machines, but the bug has infected our TFS build machine and we are unable to do any formal builds.

Are Microsoft aware of any problems and if so are they working on a solution? This is a critical issue for us.
