Install on Windows fails with toolset error

[MikeTschudi]

Installing a fresh clone of the repo fails with Microsoft products. My computer has Visual Studio 2017 as well as

• VC++ 2017 version 15.9 v14.16 latest v141 tools
• VC++ 2015.3 version 14.00 (v140) toolset for desktop (added to see if it was needed despite the "v141" text)
• MSBuild

Building the projects in this solution one at a time. To enable parallel build, please add the "/m" switch.

@MikeTschudi - verified on a VM... I will look into removing node-sass or doing something so that it does not require a "build"
