Please tell me how to install Microsoft.VisualStudio.ComponentGroup.UWP.VC.BuildTool and Microsoft.VisualStudio.ComponentGroup.UWP.BuildTools components in Visual Studio 2017 Pro. The documentation says that they are included into the Microsoft.VisualStudio.Workload.UniversalBuildTools workload (Visual Studio Build Tools workload and component IDs). But how to install these components using a network layout?

If installed as follows, they are not installed:

vs_professional.exe --layout C:\vsoffline --add Microsoft.VisualStudio.Workload.UniversalBuildTools --includeOptional --lang en-US

C:\vsoffline\vs_setup.exe --passive --noWeb --wait --norestart --nocache --in "C:\vsoffline\Response.json"

If you specify these components during installation explicitly (-add Microsoft.VisualStudio.ComponentGroup.UWP.VC.BuildTools --add Microsoft.VisualStudio.ComponentGroup.UWP.BuildTools), the installation program does not find them.
