Getting error in Winerror.h header file post migration from Vs2013 to vs2015

[Iggy495]

Hi,
I have recently migrated my code from VS2013 to VS2015. I am getting below error in during compilation.

C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Include\10.0.15063.0\shared\winerror.h(27990): error C2065: 'x': undeclared identifier
C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Include\10.0.15063.0\shared\winerror.h(27990): error C2433: '_Translates_Win32_to_HRESULT_': '__forceinline' not permitted on data declarations

OPUS MAKE: Shell line exit status 2. Stop.

The header file inclusion in my cpp file is as below.

#include <windows.h>

#include<Winerror.h>

#include <tchar.h>
#include <wininet.h> // needed for INTERNET_CERTIFICATE_INFO
#include <wincrypt.h>

Please note I am using make file to build my project.

Any help for this issue is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
