Delete the contents from the following folders:

and run

devenv /resetuserdata

Delete this

%LocalAppData%\Microsoft\VisualStudio\14.0\ComponentModelCache

Open Windows Task Manager and end this process if it exist

VsHub.exe

reset Visual Studio to System Defaults (this can be done from the options within Visual Studio)
Try Running As Administrator (right-click Visual Studio and choose "Run As Administrator")
If none of the above worked try Restart your local machine.

I don't have the AppData Folder in my user.
and All i have in the 14.0 folder is a XML folder
i clicked in the devenv.exe it just open the Visual studio 2017
and there is no VsHub.exe running on processes Task Manager.

i had installed Universal SDK because it was giving a corecrt.h file was missing error i read that that was the solution, after that it started asking for 10.0 Version Which i also installed and managed to solved that and now im here. is like one on top of another lol

compile is no not so much my thing i did it once with TFS 1.0 that its been a while because i was running a TFS 1.0. Now im trying to update to a Simple TFS 1.3 and is giving me a pain just to compile it

Do you have any other visual studio versions installed? I had an issue once when I was compiling many sources with visual studio 2010/2015/2017 and attached many boosts/includes so if you have any unused visual studio versions or boosts/includes paths just clean them.

Go to Project->Retarget Solution and retarget it to the version you have.
If you get toolset v142 error as well, go to Project->theforgottenserver properties->platform toolset->v141
