Alright. I've been a good little boy and I have tried to google for my issue prior to coming to the MS community once again. I installed VS 2015, did NOT uninstall it but used it in conjunction with VS 2017. I no longer needed either version because what I need 2015 for was no longer a part of my programming life. I discovered that 2017 was obsolete with the recent release of 2019. I uninstalled 2015 and 2017 while downloading and installing 2019.
