Dear Sir or Madam,
I am trying to export a Simulink model as Standalone FMU for Windows x86-32 platform. However, I obtain the following error:
Error:An installation of Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 cannot be detected
I have already installed Microsoft Visual Studio BuildTools 2017. This is the installation path.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\BuildTools
How could I solve this?
Thank you very much in advance.

For Visual Studio 2017, MATLAB uses registry entries to find the installation folder. If MATLAB can't detect your Visual Studio 2017 installation, the issue is likely to be caused by the Windows registry entry being empty, not pointing to the correct installation folder. Please set the registry keys accordingly.
Please also note that only Community, Professional, and Enterprise editions are supported for the Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 product family. Other editions, such as Express, Preview, and Code, are not supported

Dear Dinesh,
Thank you very much for your answer! I would appreciate it if you could detail how to set the registry keys accordingly. I have previously tried that with no success.
Thank you very much in advance.
