Build every time and cannot debug VD2017

I just upgraded to visual studio 2017 and reinstalled latest 
Visual D. When I hit start, the project is built every time 
rather than building only when changed. This did not happen 
before as it would only build with a source change. Any ideas?

The build issue is that
test.exe not up to date: link dependency file Win32\Debug 
DMD\test.lnkdep does not exist

Also, The debugger is not working. It simply runs without ever 
hitting a breakpoint. Worked fine in VS2015. This only happens 
with x64 build. x86 does hit the BP. I've tried the three 
debugger versions.


These issues seem to be related solely to visual studio 2017 as I 
was using 2015 before with latest Visual D and did not have these 
problems. Nothing really changed except installing 2017. I guess 
it might be a compatibility problem but only real issues I have 
experiences is what I have described above(but these were out of 
the box issues, I have not used it much to notice any others).
