Here is line 84 i was asked to give for C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Include\10.0.18362.0\um\GdiplusImaging.h

GdiplusImaging.h

MIDL_INTERFACE("025D1823-6C7D-447B-BBDB-A3CBC3DFA2FC")

Its possible if you show some code around line 84 of `C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Include\10.0.18362.0\um\GdiplusImaging.h` that this could help debug the issue. I don't understand the problem. — drescherjm, Apr 13 '20 at 14:13
As i was surfing the internet, it seems this problem is something to do with WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN (well, atleast i think it does). Note : I haven't solved the problem yet. — Unknownguy, Apr 13 '20 at 14:44
***it seems this problem is something to do with WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN*** I thought about that when I saw the errors.

I fixed this issue by going to file called "framework.h",which I believe is called in previous versions of visual studio "header.h", and I commented out the line #define WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN.

I will admit i did forget to provide in code but it was there in one of the image I provided.Actually I didn't forget it was ``` marks in stackoverflow question submission where it was hidden. – Unknownguy Apr 13 '20 at 15:22

My advice is next time please avoid screenshots of text. – drescherjm Apr 13 '20 at 15:25

"called in previous versions of visual studio `header.h`" Did you perhaps mean `stdafx.h` which many many versions of the Visual C++ New Project Wizard would create for you? – Ben Voigt Apr 13 '20 at 15:34
