In Visual Studio 2017, I am building Class Library(Portable) which targets both .Net 4.6 and Windows Universal Application 10.0. While building the application, below error is thrown.

Error  File 'MakePri.exe' not found. See http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=798187 for more information.

I have done the following
- Installed Latest Windows 10 SDK
- Repaired Visual Studio 2017
- Also in the environment variables, "WindowsSdkDir" is not available
- The path "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\bin" exists and this file also available

I have used the following post to troubleshoot this issue. https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/8c752e9e-85df-4fee-8026-9b54b6e46be2/vs1517-error-appx1639-missing-file-makepriexe?forum=msbuild

But still there is no luck.

I was having this same problem.

what I solved was I copy an SDKManifest.xml file from the folder of my sdk that was installed in this path "D: \ Windows Kits \ 10"

just copy the SDKmanifest to the project root folder, and it worked normally!
