I installed IncludeToolbox to VisualStudio 2017 professional. And download include-what-you-use.exe from https://github.com/Wumpf/iwyu_for_vs_includetoolbox When I run by Rclick -> 'Run Include-What-You-Use', it says 'there is a newer version...' , and download it, then it makes error popup. 'Include Toolbox Can't run IWYU: Couldn't file a VCCLCompilerTool in VC++ Project.' What should I do next? Sincere Ryan.

According to the message (which has a typo - should be "Couldn't find") you are not executing the action on a C++ project. Is that the case?
